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 fast-paced, arcade-style bullet-hell where you dodge relentless projectiles and build unique ship loadouts through trial and error.

What players say

Players enjoy the variety of builds and the fast, short runs. Boss fights are a highlight, though some find the game a bit easy for now. It is in early access and players expect more content.
