The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalogue in 3D

The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

Space Goofs (French: Les Zinzins de l'Espace) is a French animated television series created by Jean-Yves Raimbaud and Philippe Traversat, produced by Gaumont Multimedia (season 1) and Xilam (season 2) for France 3, and broadcast on that network from September 6, 1997, to May 12, 2006. The first season was also on Fox Kids in the United States from 1997–2000, while the second season aired internationally. The series also served as the basis of an adventure game, developed by Xilam themselves and published by Ubisoft for Windows and Dreamcast called Stupid Invaders in 2000 – which was dedicated to Raimbaud. In contrast to the original show, it featured plenty of toilet humor and slightly more crude, adult content. It also was the first work produced by Xilam to be made for an older audience – the others being the adult animated movies I Lost My Body and Kaena: The Prophecy, and the adult animated series Mr. Baby and Twilight of the Gods.
