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 puzzle game that challenges you to solve automation and logistics problems by writing real Python code.

What players say
Players split on its value as a teaching tool. Some praise the direct file editing and puzzle design for beginners, while others find the tutorials nonexistent and the tasks become trivial once you learn each system's commands.
