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 fast and punishing arcade action game where you must quickly master simple controls to survive waves of colorful giant mushrooms.

What players say

Players enjoy the co-op and retro art style, but many struggle with the diagonal-only movement, calling the controls unintuitive until learned. The difficulty ramps up steadily and the game feels complete, though some content may be score-locked.
