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 tense strategic journey where you carefully manage dwindling supplies while navigating unpredictable space threats.

What players say

Players consistently describe it as Oregon Trail in space, blending supply management with mini-games from early 90s shooters and space combat. Runs take a few evenings. A few note it feels barebones and content-light, but the developer fixes issues overnight.
