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 deliberate, methodical blend of base management and tactical space combat with a retro pixel aesthetic.

What players say
Players compare it to XCOM and Advance Wars in space, but say the early game is punishing and the many turn-based battles become a slog. Base management and tactical combat are engaging, though the game shows everything it has fairly quickly and some mechanics feel unpolished.
