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 slow, contemplative puzzle game where you guide rain over a grid of tiles, thinking a few steps ahead while watching obstacles and time pressure gradually build.

What players say

Players describe RainyCloud as a short, simple, and relaxing experience, with some calling it meditative. A few note it is hard to get a high score despite the easy premise, and one says it feels like a tech demo.
