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 tense and emotional survival adventure where you manage scarce water while gliding through desert skies, balancing risk and story-driven choices.

What players say

Players describe it as an Oregon Trail-style survival game with permadeath, where you manage water while flying a glider through randomly generated events. The controls for the glider are wonky, the game is short (around 1-4 hours), and some find the permanent death frustrating, while others praise the emotional story about a father and daughter.
