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 fast-paced bullet hell survival game where you dodge and weave through swarms while building powerful weapon synergies in tense, arcade-style combat.

What players say

Players say Maku is a short Vampire Survivors-like with cute pixel art and bullet hell combat. The game was abandoned in early access and offers little content or variety. Some find it too easy, while others struggle with its randomness.
