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 chill, colorful arcade-like experience where you build a rocket, collect floating debris, and slowly upgrade your craft while avoiding asteroids.

What players say

Players describe it as a simple, cheap arcade game about flying a rocket to collect money and upgrade, comparing it to Doodle Jump in reverse. Some find the manual sorting of junk at the end of each level grindy and tedious, while others enjoy the relaxed loop and low price.
