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.

About

Profane is a 3D boss rush Bullet Hell based on time. This means that you have to face every Boss and defeat them before your time runs out! Time is money and health, so acquiring abilities or being damaged will reduce your remaining combat time. You better watch out! Along your path, you will unlock over 40 unique abilities by defeating bosses. Before each battle you will be able to customise your ability loadouts to optimize your playstyle and discover powerful combos! In Profane you embody Talaal, the last of God’s seven masks. Talaal finds you just in time to fight against her siblings, that hunt her to absorb the power within the mask. You are now trapped, fighting a war that is not your own, a cycle that seems impossible to break. If you enjoy frantic experiences and hard challenges,prepare to be tested! Challenge other players and reach the top of the leaderboards!
