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 visually overwhelming, high-energy bullet hell that feels like maneuvering through a kaleidoscope of geometric patterns set to upbeat music.

What players say

Players praise the stylish visuals and music, and note the unique twist of a stationary ship that rotates instead of dodging. Reviews describe it as a rhythmic bullet hell with short runs under 10 minutes and a risk-reward upgrade system. Some find mouse-only controls can cause frustration during intense play.
