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 brief, retro-infused action romp through a procedurally shifting digital grid, mixing arcade combat with a surreal, atmospheric sci-fi edge.

What players say

Players enjoy the short Tron-inspired adventure for its retro art style and throwable weapons, but find the combat a bit repetitive and some puzzle levels confusing. Many wish for a map as they got lost, and opinions split on the visual fidelity.
