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.

A laid-back, explorative surfing adventure where you follow guidance to ride waves at scenic tropical islands.

What players say

Players describe an ambitious open-world surf simulator that is still very early in development. The surfing mechanics feel broken and unpolished, making it frustrating to catch and ride waves, but exploring the island on foot or by jet ski offers some fun. Players praise the concept and potential, while warning that it is glitchy and lacking content.
