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.

How it feels

A lone developer's scrappy, chaotic action roguelike where surviving increasingly crazy modifiers against hordes of wraiths keeps each run unpredictable.

What players say

Players praise the fast-paced horde shooting and melee combat, especially its third-person twist on medieval knights with modern firearms. The solo developer gets consistent credit, though the online is dead and the menus feel unpolished.
