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 frantic, high-speed cyberpunk hack-and-slash where each run punishes and rewards equally, pushing you to upgrade and try again.

What players say

Players praise the combat feel and addictive roguelike loop, especially after the gear system update smoothed progression. The developer is unusually responsive to feedback and has steadily improved performance and content since early access. A minority criticizes the online mode and cosmetic direction.
