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.

What players say

Players split on StarRupture. Fans of the genre see potential in its building and automation, but most agree it feels unfinished. Common complaints include a harsh death penalty that drops all items, no vehicles for travel, repetitive spider-like enemies, and missing quality-of-life features like container sorting. Multiplayer suffers from lag and crashes, especially for joining players.
