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 frantic, high-intensity shoot 'em up where players speed through vibrant, varied environments, destroying everything in sight while collecting loot to upgrade their ship.

What players say

Players praise the music and the mix of Zelda exploration with bullet hell shooting, but many report recurring crashes that erase progress, and the game lacks basic PC options like windowed mode or controller support. Some find it repetitively grindy, and the challenge mode is considered unfairly hard.
