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.

What players say

Players praise the game for its one-button controls and focus on dodging and positioning rather than direct attacks, creating a fun flow of climbing a tower. It draws from Vampire Survivors but emphasizes movement and strategy, with a fixed map that encourages learning enemy and terrain patterns. There is an optional soundtrack choice at startup. Some note the movement has a slight learning curve.
