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 lone robot blasts through procedurally generated labyrinths, uncovering upgrades in a gory, nonlinear adventure.

What players say

Players love the Super Metroid-inspired feel but are split on the roguelike loop. Some find it addictive with hundreds of hours, while others say it gets repetitive and the random map design lacks atmosphere.
