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 quick, lightweight arcade action game that feels easy to pick up for short bursts of play, though its early access state means the experience is still taking shape.

What players say

Players describe a survivors-style roguelike where you pilot a slow, bulky capital ship with auto-firing turrets, comparing it to Vampire Survivors and Nova Drift. Runs last around 15 minutes, permanent unlocks between runs fuel long-term goals, and several recommend starting on easy. A few note zero onboarding and an aggressive zoom level.
