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 neon arcade runner where your own music shapes the world and the way you play remixes the soundtrack, with mistakes pulling the song backward in time.

What players say
Players describe Vinyl as an experimental rhythm-runner made by students that lets you add your own music, but the generated levels don't sync to the beat and the visuals can become a blurry, blinding mess. Performance problems like stutters and lag are common, and even free, the repetitive dodging and poor implementation leave many calling it a failed project.
