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 frenetic, pixelated arena shooter that feels like a cynical, blood-drenched arcade nightmare where every upgrade is a step closer to a grim goal.

What players say

Players praise the art style, soundtrack, and weapon diversity, but split on progression: some enjoy the money-based level-up system, while others find the grind excessive, the boss too bullet-spongy, and the auto-aim toggle buried behind obtuse unlocks. Performance can get choppy with many effects on screen.
