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 contemplative puzzle-platformer where each environmental puzzle and decision underscores the quiet weight of a plastic-choked world.

What players say

Players agree this is a very short, free student project with an environmental message. Many praise its emotional tone and the way choices affect the ending, but just as many find the controls frustrating and the story too simplistic. There is a dog you can pet and rescue.
