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 calm, methodical puzzle game where you design and automate factories by rearranging space and transforming objects through portals and welders.

What players say

Players call it a top-tier Zachlike that rivals Zachtronics' own games. The portal mechanics unlock immense creative potential and the difficulty ramps from gentle to brutally hard, but the lack of histograms or leaderboards leaves some wishing for more optimization feedback.
