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 stylish, fast-paced bullet-hell brawler with dramatic vocal performances and intense, neon-lit battles against mythic beasts.

What players say

Players praise the shift to horizontal scrolling and the reward for risky grazing, with a soul collect mechanic that clears bullets for points. Boss designs are called creepy and memorable, the art and soundtrack stand out, but some say the quality is a step down from the first game and note the tutorial uses AI narration without disclosure.
