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.

About

Super Metroid: Cryogenesis is a romhack created for a streaming contest. This is the contest version with cleanup fixes from what was seen when it was streamed. More is planned and being worked on to expand, however that doesn't mean this should feel half complete. A compact adventure awaits you with a focus on clean, thematic visuals and unique level design.
