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 tense blend of mining and survival horror where you gather resources while avoiding adaptive underwater predators in a flood-prone coal mine.

What players say

Players praise the water physics and unique horror-resource management blend, but consistently note the early access is very short, with only a tutorial and one main level. Most reviewers are hopeful for future updates and cite replayability through modifiers and Twitch integration.
