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 quick, rhythmic action game with a retro RPG Maker feel, where you time button presses to slash down monsters.

What players say

Players see a fun but rough proof of concept. The timing can feel off, especially with bluetooth headsets, and one-hit kills on the last level frustrate. It is very short, about 15 minutes, and reviewers recommend it as a free gateway into rhythm games rather than for hardcore fans.
