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.

About

Chasing Aurora is an aerial action game that is set in the thin air of the Alps. It is a 2D open world action game featuring physics-based flight and air combat. Your quest is to find and retrieve shards of the shattered sun and return them to the sun altar. Move freely in three different climate zones, searching for the shards of the sun. Some of them were found by vile animals, some landed in precarious locations, some are hidden from plain sight. Sometimes it takes a fight, and sometimes it takes a breakneck stunt in midair to retrieve a shard. Chasing Aurora is a game about the dream of flight.
