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 comedic spaghetti western where you ride through a pixelated open world, choosing when to draw your revolver and face the consequences of every trigger pull.

What players say

Players love the unique combat where you only aim left or right and hats are your health, making fights short and deadly. They praise the open world where you can draw or holster your gun mid-conversation and shape the story through choices. A few find the controls clunky and the dialogue tedious, and some report game-breaking bugs that block progress.
