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 gentle, lonely journey through a barren planet, made warm by a small cat companion and soft pixel art.

What players say
Players praise this as a short, cozy puzzle platformer where you control an astronaut and a cat. Some find the dual-character controls awkward and the lack of checkpoints punishing, while others enjoy the unique premise and free price.
