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 straightforward action game where you slash through enemies to clear residential areas and stop an invasion.

What players say

Players report mixed feelings on this short side-scrolling brawler: some enjoy its nostalgic Newgrounds-style art and simple walk-forward structure, but others complain about unresponsive attack inputs and a combat system where strikes feel inconsistent. The developer patched some issues post-launch, earning some praise for responsiveness.
