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 methodical, open-ended game about directing robots to reshape an alien world and expand your factory at your own pace.

What players say

Players praise the potential of coding drone behavior with two scripting systems, but the game launched unfinished with broken tutorials, no cloud saves, and documentation so sparse that even basic tasks become frustrating puzzles. Development appears to have been abandoned before it was ready.
