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-paced bullet heaven where each run feels like a chaotic experiment with colorful explosions and evolving weapon synergies.

What players say

Players praise the generous meta progression and build variety for the low price, calling it a steal. The combat loop creates a strong 'one more run' pull, but some find the actual gameplay repetitive and the enemies bland. Performance issues include hitboxes that feel larger than the models and stuttering during heavy enemy kills.
