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 challenging top-down metroidvania where careful combat and exploration on a hostile planet demand persistence.

What players say
Players describe a short 2D action game blending metroidvania exploration with souls-like combat. They praise the pixel art and weapon variety but note the lack of a run or roll makes traversal clunky, and a steep difficulty spike after the first area frustrates some. Opinions split on whether the combat flows well or feels slow and uncancelable.
