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 casual arcade side-scrolling shooter with cartoony dark visuals, playable solo or with friends.

What players say

Players are sharply divided. Many dismiss this free-to-play chapter as a low-effort ad for an abandoned product, with janky controls and primitive art. Others see a solid, day-of-the-dead-themed co-op platformer with fun trap-based combat and Cuphead-like bosses, though they agree it is very short and buggy.
