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 fast-paced bullet-hell action game with a dreamlike, whimsical tone set in the familiar Touhou world.

What players say

Players say the game is a very short bullet-hell made in RPG Maker, clocking in under 15 minutes. There is broad agreement that controls are clunky with input lag and performance can drop heavily in busy fights, though the low price and cute art earn some leniency.
