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 chaotic and frantic local multiplayer brawler where up to eight players explode each other with bombs in overpixelated arenas.

What players say

Players love OctaFight as a chaotic local multiplayer party game for up to 8, with simple bomb-throwing rules that lead to competitive fun. There is no built-in online multiplayer, only remote play. Some players find the parrying mechanic frustrating, and the game has minimal tutorial.
