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 bullet-hell platformer where you constantly grab and hurl objects at hordes of enemies while dodging a relentless hail of projectiles.

What players say

Players praise the game for its unique combat where you throw anything you can pick up at enemies, but the game is short at 2 to 3 hours and has some tightly difficult bosses that require good reflexes.
