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 classic side-scrolling beat 'em up with crisp combat, chunky combos, and cooperative play that feels like a polished Flash-era arcade brawler.

What players say

Players praise the nostalgia but are split on the port's quality. Many report technical issues like broken controller support, forced resolution changes, and no key rebinding. The game is criticized for tanky enemies, low health drops, and punishing difficulty. Some call out the developer for frequent promises with slow progress and a dismissive attitude toward feedback.
