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
Navigating a surreal simulation where solving dual-realm puzzles gradually reveals a fractured identity, creating a meditative yet mildly eerie sense of discovery.

What players say
Players compare the puzzle design to Portal and The Talos Principle, saying it has its own personality. The 60 levels are playable despite early access, with difficulty that ramps up and demands logic skills. Players note the Lumen lighting and Unreal Engine 5 graphics as a highlight for a solo developer project.
