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 slow-burn sci-fi strategy experience with classic RTS base-building and resource management, set against a backdrop of corporate ruthlessness and space exploration.

What players say
Players call this a short but fun indie RTS from a solo developer, heavily inspired by StarCraft. They praise the heat-based building system and note it has difficulty spikes, even on easy. Reviews split on whether it lacks variety for replays.
