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
You command a starship in real-time from a first-person view, managing power and crew while facing alien attacks and cosmic threats with a constant sense of urgency.

What players say
Players call it a first-person FTL that is rough around the edges but a steal at its low price. The dated graphics (running on id Tech 4) are a common complaint, yet most overlook them for the fun of commanding a ship, boarding enemies, and managing a crew. A few mention technical issues like crashes and long load times.
