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 cute but challenging 2D shooter where you explore a vibrant world and fight with spells.

What players say

Players describe a short, cute top-down adventure with bullet-hell bosses and exploration that feels more like a Zelda-like than a metroidvania. The final boss deletes your save file with no warning, and players are split on whether the combat and movement are fun or tedious.
