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, short-burst shooter where every run is a chaotic, punishing sprint to survive and win in under an hour.

What players say

Players describe it as a fast-paced old-school FPS with roguelite elements, fun mobility upgrades, and quirky humor, but many note clunky movement and gunplay, and some find the roguelite variety shallow. Opinions split on whether the game holds up today.
