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 narrative-driven management game where you juggle real-time roller derby matches and the personal dramas of your team, balancing strategy with emotional investment.

What players say

Players praise the story, art, and characters but split on the roller derby gameplay, calling it clunky and luck-dependent. Some find the save system frustrating and wish for dialogue skipping. The ending leaves some wanting more.
