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 tense, skill-demanding bullet-hell roguelike where precise movement and strategic shooting are essential for survival in a grim Wild West setting.

What players say

Players describe it as a twin-stick shooter in the Vampire Survivors mold, with a gothic western aesthetic and pixel art. Opinions split on balance: some say it was too grindy and unbalanced at launch, while others praise the developers for rapidly addressing feedback.
