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 retro arcade-style top-down shooter with light puzzle-solving and a comedic tone, played at a casual pace.

What players say

Players call this a retro-inspired shooter that is short, beatable in a couple of hours, with small levels and a sharp difficulty curve. Boss fights make you sweat, and higher difficulty levels are notably hard.
