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 frantic, unforgiving top-down shooter where every run feels like a desperate scramble for quick upgrades and survival.

What players say
Players describe Nuclear Throne as a brutally difficult but addictive bullet hell roguelike where short runs keep you coming back for more. The gunplay feels crisp and satisfying, with low health and no invincibility frames making every moment tense. Some players compare it favorably to Enter the Gungeon, while others note that progress can stall due to the high difficulty.
