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 lighthearted, fast-paced VR arcade defense game where you protect sweets with spells and silly enemy hats.

What players say

Players describe it as a cross between a tower defense game and a top-down shooter, with room-scale VR letting you physically walk around the tabletop. The difficulty spikes, especially falling off the table is a heavy penalty, but the responsive developer and progression system keep players coming back.
