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 chaotic, physics-driven party brawler where players build, destroy, and manipulate the battlefield in colorful, competitive matches with up to four friends.

What players say

Players praise the unique concept of destroying and building terrain mid-fight, calling it a fun party game with simple controls that leads to competitive chaos. The pixel art and groovy soundtrack are highlights, though reviews split on control intuitiveness and note that maps and items feel bland in early access.
