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.

A bite-sized pirate adventure with retro pixel art, open exploration across islands, and steady action against creatures and pirates.

What players say

Players appreciate the adventure and combat, but find the sailing too slow and the sea combat lacking. Many say it is a promising early-access title that needs more content and polish.
