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 tense bullet hell where you dodge dense patterns while collecting items in fast, precise movements.

What players say

Players call this a good entry point for the series, though it is still very hard – one person needed 40 hours just to get a 1CC. The music is widely praised and the homing performance of one shot type is a standout, but the game requires vpatch and community translation to run, and its windowed mode is very small.
