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

Building your own fighter from enemy parts and brawling through a computer world feels like a frantic, arcade-style beat 'em up with modular combat.

What players say

Players compare it to Smash Bros and Mega Man, with a standout mechanic where you collect and swap enemy body parts to customize your moveset. Combat feels clunky and floaty to some, while others praise the creativity and local co-op fun. Many wish for a sequel with online play.
