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 laid-back, low-stakes simulator where you slowly circle a model with a controllable camera, more curious novelty than challenge.

About

Virtual View is a game in which you play the photographer's role once more, but this time the girls are displayed for you via 360 degree video. You can manipulate the camera all around the model(s) as they move, taking pictures from your desired angle. This was done by using multiple cameras, in a technique similar to the Matrix's bullet time - but of course the camera motion is completely controlled by you.
