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 physics-based jousting brawl with goofy unicorns where balancing and precise timing turn fights into a rainbow-coloured chaotic spectacle.

What players say

Players praise the quirky character designs and varied levels that force tactical experimentation, but many find the core gameplay repetitive. Multiplayer with friends is where the fun lives, while the single-player campaign is called annoying and, for some, has broken controls. Players are split on the survival mode, which offers a roguelike structure that adventure mode lacks.
