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 frenetic, campy rhythm game where you bust groovy moves to funky beats, fighting enemies with style and swagger.

What players say

Players love the game itself, calling it a stylish, unhinged rhythm game with a banger soundtrack and iconic lead. But they warn that the Steam port is a mess: audio desync, crashes, missing voice lines, and a final stage that breaks unless set to 60hz. The game has also been delisted and is no longer supported, which fuels frustration among fans.
