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 gentle, exploratory indie game where you glide through haunted pixel-art wilds, using careful flight and puzzle-solving to rekindle ancient relics.

What players say
Players praise the owl flight mechanics and customizable color palettes, but many struggle to distinguish foreground from background. The single repeating music track and increasingly tedious puzzles cause some to lose interest, while others compare the later difficulty spike to Celeste.
