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 describe Probo Rush as a short but intense boss rush game split into 10 fights, comparing it to Contra and Cuphead. It is considered a fair challenge, though some note occasional frame rate drops and slow controls. A sister title called Full Moon Rush is frequently mentioned.
