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, minimal 2D shooter with very short stages, lots of quick unlocks, and a quirky educational mission.

What players say

Players describe it as a simple but brutally difficult top-down shooter with no official English translation. The game rewards practice, is short and free, and players are split on whether the difficulty is satisfying or excessive.
