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 simple, fast-paced bullet hell dungeon crawler where you fight through monster-filled caves, seek treasure, and face tough bosses with permadeath and unlockable characters.

What players say

Players describe it as a quick, cheap bullet-hell with roguelike upgrades. It is very short with no main menu, no settings, and no ending screen. Some find it shallow while others enjoy mindless runs.
