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 fast-paced boss rush that demands quick reflexes and precise timing, with difficulty options ranging from forgiving to brutally punishing.

What players say

Players describe a short boss rush game (around 3 hours) with first-person combat that is easy to learn but hard to master. The handpainted visuals and solo development impress many, but some find the controls awkward and boss difficulty uneven, with easy gimmicks alongside tough fights.
