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 protect a chaotic, free-roaming island by evolving weird mushrooms into unpredictable living weapons, learning from each loss.

What players say

Players praise the addictive loop and cute mushroom theme, especially the novel premise of defending trees from lumberjacks. They highlight the variety from procedurally generated maps, unlockable modifiers, and an endless mode that gets properly hard. A couple note it could use some balancing.
