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 design and pilot a custom spaceship in chaotic 2D battles with fully destructible enemies and flashy explosions.

What players say

Players broadly agree that StarShip Constructor is a cheap but abandoned early-access game with fun shipbuilding for a few hours. Many criticize the lack of content, buggy AI that rams and attacks regardless of player choice, and the developer's failure to deliver promised updates.
