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.

What players say

Players describe a short, intimate visual novel that uses stylized mixed-media visuals and a dreamy soundtrack to explore self-worth, suicidal ideation, and meaning. The writing is praised for being honest without falling into darkness or sugarcoating, ending on a reassuring but bittersweet note.
