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

You command a small squad of mercenaries through procedurally generated buildings, blending tactical shooting and stealth in a top-down roguelite arcade pace.

What players say

Players call it OrangePixel's most complex game, blending tactical stealth with arcade shooting and micro-game puzzles. The co-op mode is praised but one player found it annoyingly hidden in the pause menu. Reviews consistently praise the pixel art and squadmate upgrades, while noting the game respects your time.
