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.

What players say

Players praise the mix of base building and bullet heaven combat, calling it a unique fusion of genres. Many note it feels unfinished, with bugs, repetitive late-game content, and confusing building placement due to no rotation and obstructed views. The UI and tutorial are criticized for poor guidance and harsh visual effects.
