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 fast-paced, intense third-person shooter where you dash through scenic environments, blasting bug-like enemies with terrain-deforming attacks and pulse-pounding music.

What players say

Players describe Caster as a janky but ambitious indie game that feels like a student project or physics demo. It offers fast movement with terrain-altering powers across short, empty levels, and ends on a cliffhanger. Opinions split on whether the fun movement makes up for the lack of polish and abandoned development.
