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 tense puzzle-platformer where your every move is mirrored by a deadly alien predator that you must keep alive but at a distance, while navigating a harsh alien environment.

What players say
Players describe a puzzle platformer where you control both a character and a mimic that copies your movements. The difficulty ramps up nicely, though some find the physics a bit janky and the movement floaty. Co-op is local only, and a few report crashes when alt-tabbing.
