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

Speedy arcade shooting with a chaotic intensity as you dash through procedurally generated levels and blast futuristic enemies.

What players say

Players praise the game as a fun and addictive free-to-play roguelike shooter, though some note it was abandoned in early access and has bugs. A few wish for quality-of-life improvements like item descriptions or a minimap.
