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 cooperative sandbox adventure where you gather ingredients, build soup factories, and fight off aliens in vibrant, pixelated worlds.

What players say

Players love the weird premise of making soup on alien planets, but they split on whether the game is fun enough to overlook its problems. Many report the PC version is buggy and crashes often, especially in online co-op, and say the developers never fixed longstanding issues. Others find the gameplay gets repetitive once you've seen everything.
