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 third-person mythological action game where you fight corrupted fantasy creatures in co-op, with a straightforward quest and local multiplayer focus.

What players say

Players say the game is a short student project with repetitive combat and no attack costs, leading to spam. Achievements are broken and local multiplayer has input issues. Some find the movement fluid and fun, but others call it boring and unfinished.
