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
Exploring a connected pixel art world while manipulating time between barren present and lush past feels methodical and story rich.

What players say
Players praise it as a solid, short metroidvania with charming pixel art and a soundtrack that echoes Castlevania. The time-freeze gimmick is appreciated, though some find it rarely used. Reviews split on the story: many enjoy it, while a few criticize it as too focused on LGBT and feminist themes.
