# PixelBloom Assets

[PixelBloom Assets](https://game-assets-digital.mock.shop/llms.txt) is a [mock.shop](https://www.mock.shop/) sample store for building against a small, nonshipping catalog before a real Shopify store is ready. It includes listings categorized as 3D Modeling Software, Graphic Design & Illustration Software, and Audio Accessories. The catalog has 8 products across 2 collections. Every product has one default variant and requires no shipping, even when its name or category sounds like physical hardware.

mock.shop is an auth-free Shopify Storefront GraphQL API backed by sample reference stores. Find out more about [mock.shop sample stores](https://www.shopify.com/blog/mock-shop).

## When to use this store

Choose PixelBloom Assets when you’re building a game-asset-style storefront with a small, nonshipping sample catalog and no variant selectors.

Use PixelBloom Assets for:

- Game-asset storefronts with a small, nonshipping catalog
- Product pages that read `requiresShipping` instead of inferring it from taxonomy
- Default-variant cart items without invented subscription or download behavior

Choose another mock.shop store if you need shippable products or configurable variants. Browse <https://mock.shop/llms.txt> to find a store that matches your catalog.

## Example PixelBloom Assets query

Here’s an example GraphQL `POST` request that retrieves two products whose names could suggest unsupported behavior from <https://game-assets-digital.mock.shop/api>:

```bash
curl https://game-assets-digital.mock.shop/api \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{"query":"{ earphones: product(handle: \"powder-blue-wireless-earphones\") { id title category { name } variants(first: 1) { nodes { id title price { amount currencyCode } requiresShipping } } sellingPlanGroups(first: 1) { nodes { name } } } interface: product(handle: \"subscription-model-interface\") { id title category { name } variants(first: 1) { nodes { id title price { amount currencyCode } requiresShipping } } sellingPlanGroups(first: 1) { nodes { name } } } }"}'
```

This query returns product IDs, titles, categories, default variant IDs and titles, prices, shipping requirements, and selling-plan groups. The earphones are categorized as Audio Accessories but return `requiresShipping: false`; Subscription Model Interface also requires no shipping and returns no selling-plan groups. Adapt the query for your storefront needs.

The endpoint doesn't require authentication or an access token. Read <https://game-assets-digital.mock.shop/llms.txt> for catalog details and store-specific instructions.

## What this catalog lets you test

Build simple product pages and carts that don’t require shipping. Use the earphones listing to check that a hardware-sounding title and category don’t override `requiresShipping: false`. All eight products require no shipping and have no selling-plan groups, including the interface with “Subscription” in its title. These responses don’t establish downloadable files, license terms, recurring billing, or fulfillment behavior.

Preview the catalog in a storefront by opening <https://game-assets-digital.hydrogen.mock.shop> in a browser.

## Build with an AI coding tool

To build a game-asset storefront with PixelBloom Assets using Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Lovable, or another AI assistant, copy the prompt below. It gives the assistant the store domain and directs it to the catalog instructions before it starts writing code.

```text
Build me a Hydrogen storefront using game-assets-digital.mock.shop as the store domain. Setup instructions: game-assets-digital.mock.shop/llms.txt
```

Shopify also provides a [mock.shop starter project](https://github.com/Shopify/mock-shop-starter): a Hydrogen storefront with product pages, collection browsing, and a working cart already connected to mock.shop. You or your AI coding tool can customize this code instead of building those pieces from scratch.

Follow the repository’s setup instructions, then set `PUBLIC_STORE_DOMAIN=game-assets-digital.mock.shop` in `.env` and restart the dev server to use PixelBloom Assets’ catalog. Leave `PUBLIC_STOREFRONT_API_TOKEN` empty; mock.shop doesn’t require a token.

## Move to a real Shopify store

mock.shop uses fictional, read-only catalog data. Cart operations work, and checkout is mocked: no payment is taken and no real order is placed. The Customer Account API isn’t supported.

When you’re ready to launch, point your storefront at a Shopify store and add that store’s public Storefront API token. If you don’t have a Shopify store yet, [start a Shopify free trial](https://www.shopify.com/free-trial) to create one.

Read the [mock.shop developer documentation](https://shopify.dev/docs/storefronts/headless/mock-shop) for setup and migration details.
