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 lightweight, chaotic hockey party game where simple controls lead to ricocheting trick shots and playful face-offs.

What players say

Players call it a polished arcade hockey game that is easy to pick up but has hidden depth in trick shots and physics. Some complain about the price and note that the goalie is not controllable.
