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 fly your ship over colorful alien worlds, gathering plants and mining resources to build a base and brew moonshine at your own pace.

What players say

Players enjoy the sandbox loop of collecting resources, building a base, refining fuel and moonshine, and trading while exploring planets. Some note the mechanics are complex at first but rewarding, and the flying model evokes nostalgia for old games like Lunar Lander. The game is in early access, so players hope for continued updates.
