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-burn space sim where you pilot a single ship through a changed galaxy, balancing combat tactics with quiet exploration.

What players say

Players report the game is barely functional on modern Windows and requires an unofficial patch to run. The tutorial is often broken or frustrating, the voice acting is almost universally panned, and the controls feel clunky. Long-time players acknowledge it is the developer's first game and later entries improve on it.
