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.

What players say

Players describe Astral Traveler as a punishing arcade racer where phasing through pulsars for speed boosts is the key mechanic. Opinion splits on controls: some find them responsive, others say they feel off. Several players mention bugged achievements and repetitive track designs, while others chase leaderboard times for replayability.
