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 but casual bullet hell where you evolve a wand through meaningful choices, with a surreal, colorful art style that balances tense action with a relaxing loop of upgrade and restart.

What players say

Players say Watercolor Hell is a short and easy Vampire Survivors-like where some builds are overpowered, making others pointless. The watercolor art style is noted, but enemy variety is low and stages feel the same, leading to quick boredom.
