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.

How it feels

A survival crafting game where you gather resources, build, and explore a large open world while fending off enemies and other players.

What players say

Player reviews are sharply divided. Many report that basic resource gathering feels broken at the start, leaving them unable to craft anything. Others, including a friend of the developer, praise a deep story and a large map with multiple islands, citing regular updates that add content. Multiplayer suffers from difficulty finding friends and losing death loot to huge shadow enemies.
