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.

a frantic, arcade-style action game about controlling a disease inside a body, fighting cells and evolving through randomly generated rooms

What players say

Players enjoy the premise of playing a disease attacking organs, praise the music and boss designs, and find it simple but fun. Some note bugs, crashes, poor controller support, and a few typos, but overall see it as a solid effort from one developer.
