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 chaotic and fast-paced cooperative action game where you and a partner are tethered together, dodging colorful bullet-hell hazards and fighting cartoonish enemies.

What players say

Players love the vine-tether co-op, calling it a fresh take on the horde survival genre that truly requires coordination. However, they consistently warn there are only three levels and little replay value after a few hours, with one reviewer finishing everything in under two hours. The game is best enjoyed in short bursts with a friend, and the challenging solo mode is also praised.
