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.

About

DarkGems is a cartoony mining rogue-lite game set in the deep gemstone caverns. Journey through three randomly generated map kinds filled with zombies, ghosts and demons. Keep an eye on your rapidly ending energy supply - one cannot survive in the dark dungeon without a light.
