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, lighthearted Metroidvania with retro pixel art and a cheerful, non-gloomy atmosphere.

What players say

Players split on Dewdrop Dynasty. Some praise its charm, art, and lighter take on the metroidvania genre, while others cite unresponsive controls, unfair bosses, and buggy launches. The runtime is short, around 6 to 15 hours, and the wall jump draws consistent criticism. Many note the developer lowered the price after complaints.
