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 tense, punishing 2D action-platformer where precise parries and exploration of a hand-drawn, mythic alien realm drive a vengeful narrative.

What players say
Players praise the parry-focused combat, comparing it to Sekiro and Hollow Knight. The final boss is widely considered the most challenging part, with multiple phases and a steep difficulty spike. The story and art style are frequently highlighted as strong points, though some find the dialogue tedious and the early-game exploration frustrating.
