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 danmaku brawl where you freeze enemy bullets as a vengeful ice fairy, blending cute chaos with tense, punishing action

What players say

Players praise the bullet-freezing mechanic as satisfying and unique to the series. The game is easy to pick up but has significant differences across difficulty levels, and it runs well on Linux and Steam Deck.
