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 vibrant side-scrolling beat 'em up with snappy combat and a lighthearted fantasy tone, best played with a friend.

What players say

Players praise the co-op and the tight combat system, but note it can be punishing when stun-locked. The game is short, around 10 to 20 hours, and rewards replay with rare drops and difficulty settings. Some report an unfixed loading-screen bug that blocks progress.
