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 rhythm game demanding precise timing and offering a rewarding, high-difficulty challenge.

What players say

Players praise the cute art and customization options, but many say the rhythm is badly mapped, notes don't match the music, making it feel like a target-hitting game instead of a rhythm game. The one-miss-lose rule is divisive: some find it adds tension, others find it frustrating. The base content is short, though a level editor offers hope for more.
