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 chaotic co-op spaceship management game where everything goes wrong and you frantically work with your crew to put out fires, fix shields, and survive cargo runs.

What players say

Players are split: some enjoy co-op chaos with friends, but many say the game is broken for solo play, lacks a tutorial, and has unresponsive controls. Several report getting stuck in walls, confusing menus, and warn the developer stopped updating the game after 2020.
