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 rough but earnest simulator of chasing a small creative dream, with a scrappy, unfinished feel.

What players say
Players connect with its honest, autobiographical story about making games, but many find the mini-games repetitive and frustrating, especially the shooting segments. Opinions split on whether the rough edges feel fitting or just broken.
