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

Piloting a spaceship through hazardous environments feels like a relentless test of spatial awareness and thrust control, with no margin for error.

What players say

Players praise the game's precise physics-based controls and beautiful visuals, though they split on the difficulty: some find it relaxing after mastering the drift, while others call it frustrating. A common complaint is the short length, with most completing it in under two hours, and a notable technical issue with mouse capture on multi-monitor setups.
