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

You drift through fragmented, dreamlike alien worlds in a slow-paced, meditative journey of philosophical discovery with a retro sci-fi aesthetic.

What players say

Players describe Afterglitch as a short, visually striking walking simulator that leans heavily on abstract sci-fi atmosphere. The movement is painfully slow and progression often relies on invisible triggers, which frustrates some. Players are split on whether its lack of direction is profound or just confusing.
