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 relentless arcade-style bullet hell where you grind through endless monster waves to upgrade your Viking warrior.

What players say

Players are sharply divided. Some call it an addictive, mindless time-waster with a good grind and multiple modes, while others say it is a bare-bones Vampire Survivors clone that lacks depth and becomes repetitive in under an hour. Complaints about poor optimization and controls appear alongside praise for the simple, relaxing loop.
