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 frantic pixel-art roguelike where you craft medieval tech weapons and fight overwhelming enemy hordes in destructible levels.

What players say

Players are split. Some enjoy the simple pixel-art roguelike fun, especially in co-op, but consistent complaints include bugs, save-wiping crashes, repetitive square arenas, and a shallow tech tree. Many compare it unfavorably to Enter the Gungeon, and some report the game stopped receiving updates.
