The catalog in 3D
The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
You design custom drones piece by piece, then pilot them through destructible planets, balancing survival and creativity in a physics-driven sandbox.

What players say
Players praise the drone building system but call the campaign shallow and unbalanced, with an arbitrary threat timer and no reason to optimize. The game is finished with no further updates planned. Players split on whether the sandbox justifies the price.
