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.

About

Jaw is an action-adventure game based on the popular movie franchise. Players control a diver and a boat, navigating between ports, collecting shells as currency and battling sea creatures including the infamous great white shark Jaws. With simple mechanics and a mix of underwater combat and overworld sailing, the game offers a fast-paced arcade-style experience loosely inspired by the films.
