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 top-down survival game where you gather resources, craft tools, build a base, and fend off giant spiders while completing tasks for villagers.

What players say

Players are split on Starvoly. Some find it easy to learn and entertaining, but many others say it feels unfinished with game-breaking bugs, no key remapping, and tool durability so low that an axe breaks after two trees. The game has not been updated since 2021 and players suspect development has stopped.
