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

This game feels like a frantic, cartoonish bullet-hell survival shooter where you play as vengeful penguins blasting gift balloons with satisfying anti-air guns.

What players say

Players enjoy the mix of tower defense and shooting with a penguin, calling it addictive and good for killing time. The story is widely dismissed as nonsense, and the game is short at around 4 hours. Controls feel mediocre, the tutorial is lacking, and managing inventory is tedious without bulk sell.
