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 minimalistic sports arcade game with psychedelic visuals, electronic music, and sudden difficulty spikes that feels like an experimental reflex test.

What players say
Players are split on this minimalist arcade game about keeping a gauge near full by pressing space. Many call it boring or a college project, while a few find it hypnotic for short bursts. The developer's decision to include an unobtainable achievement and a dismissive attitude toward completionists drew lasting criticism.
