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 simple, minimalist action game where you mindlessly hack and slash through enemies to level up.

What players say

Players enjoy the simple, stripped-down roguelite action but warn about punishing contact damage and one-hit deaths in the late game. Several say the developer abandoned the game, leaving it with little content and no controller support.
