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 loose, unhurried sandbox where you tinker with decks and effects to craft your own mix without any score or goal pushing you along.

About

This is a DJ simulator. The game gives you two decks, mixer, sampler, effects unit and loops unit and lets you loose on 70 tunes from the likes of Masters at Work, Dimitri from Paris, Shapeshifters, DJ Gregory, Francios K. This really isn't a game in the traditional sense as there are no highscores to beat. It's purely about being creative and creating a mix which your audience will enjoy.
