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 quirky, fast-paced 2D fighter with a lighthearted high school setting and modest production values.

What players say

Players praise the combo system and dash cancel mechanics as creative and fun, but note the lack of online play and rollback netcode is a glaring omission. The game is janky but delivers solid gameplay for its low price, though some find the technical implementation rough.
