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, colorful arcade shooter where you feel invincible flinging spells with motion controls through a procedurally generated universe.

What players say

Players praise the creative vision and beautiful graphics, and the spellcasting combat feels fluid and magical. The rogue-lite progression is a draw, but some find the difficulty steep with short attack windows, and Index controller support is broken with no fix.
