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 methodically slot program cards into your mech's command line each turn, feeling the tension of limited moves and permadeath as you adapt to new planetary missions.

What players say
Players say this card-based programming game lets them control mechs by arranging command cards, which makes it feel like a puzzle more than a typical tactics title. The difficulty starts steep with no tutorial, so learning comes from trial and error, and different mechs offer fresh strategies. Reviews note the developer stays engaged and the game has room to grow in content.
