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 frantic, retro-styled survival arcade game where a cute alien dodges cartoonish humans in procedurally generated dungeons, with a punishing one-life structure and lighthearted spooky atmosphere.

What players say

Players call it a fast-paced and addictive arcade runner that is easy to pick up but hard to put down, with some mentioning it is nerve-wracking and perfect for decompressing between sessions.
