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 lonely, text-driven sci-fi survival where you navigate a decaying asteroid colony with a sense of measured, atmospheric exploration.

What players say
Players love the game's atmosphere, art, and mix of platforming, RPG, and crafting, but nearly all warn that it is a paid demo with only about two hours of content. Development stalled in 2020 and has not resumed, leaving the game unfinished and unsupported.
