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 a small black hole through a generated universe where movement is deliberate and governed by realistic forces, creating a calm, meditative experience.

What players say

Players take on the role of a small black hole absorbing stars and galaxies, a concept they find compelling. Many have trouble with the momentum-based controls, finding them unintuitive and often leading to frustration. Opinions split on whether the experience is ultimately relaxing or infuriating due to the difficulty and monotony.
