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 mix of third-person shooting and cerebral puzzles where you constantly swap between distinct alien clones to survive and progress through a derelict space station.

What players say
Players are split on this indie 3D puzzler with a body-swapping gimmick. Many appreciate the unique mechanic and puzzle design, but just as many call it a slow, clunky shooter that is not a metroidvania despite the store page saying so. It runs on weak PCs, but the cel-shaded art and forgettable audio feel dated to some.
