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 chaotic and wacky bullet-hell experience where absurd weapons and friendly projectiles overcome relentless monster hordes.

What players say

Players enjoy it as a funny, fast-paced survivor game with cheesy humor and pixel art, but say it becomes grindy for upgrades and often spawns too many enemies at once, making boss fights difficult. It runs well on old PCs.
