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

Fast-paced underwater exploration and combat with a focus on agile movement and the constant threat of a monster.

What players say

Players describe it as a short, free underwater roguelike that feels inspired by Risk of Rain 2 but with far less polish and content. The gameplay is simple, often resolved by spamming ranged attacks until the oxygen or health runs out, and the mouse controls and jumping over cliffs can be annoyingly imprecise.
