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

You feel like an accidental anomaly in a bizarre robot-run world, frantically improvising your escape with a tone that blends absurdity and mystery.

What players say

Players enjoy the dark humor and bizarre premise of controlling a rebellious cow. The combat is praised for its ragdoll physics and creative enemy variety, and the skills and cosmetics add unexpected depth for a short game.
