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, unforgiving top-down shooter where every moment of combat is tense and you blast through western levels with magical bullets.

What players say

Players appreciate the careful approach this top-down shooter rewards, with limited magic rounds that force thoughtful play. The story offers multiple endings that encourage replay, though some call the level design rough and the music repetitive.
