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

You gather resources, build defenses, and explore colorful biomes while fending off nightly threats in a tense but casual survival loop.

What players say

Players are split on this solo-developed tower defense survival. Some enjoy the unique blend of base-building and open-world survival with a mountain of loot, but others report poor optimization, a dead Discord, and a developer who moved on. The difficulty spikes sharply around day five and some creatures feel overpowered late game.
