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 light-hearted, explosive romp through a colorful voxel world where destruction and discovery are equally satisfying.

What players say

Players highlight the fully destructible voxel world as the game's standout feature, but warn it is not a metroidvania despite store tags. The campaign is short at 3-5 hours with punishing death mechanics and only three hearts, and the camera can be frustrating. Linux players praise perfect compatibility.
