The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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

A rhythm game where futuristic earbuds guide you through a story, blending music and light narrative.

What players say

Players praise the novel stereo sound gimmick that changes how you hear the game, and the AI-generated music works well. The story is heartfelt but the early access version is short, leaving players wanting more. The two-button controls are beginner-friendly, though the sudden vertical note movement can be tricky.
