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 cheerful, bouncy action-adventure where you liberate districts by moving to the music, with a forgiving rhythm system that keeps things playful.

What players say
Players love the rhythm-based combat and the electro soundtrack, calling it a fresh take on the genre. The writing gets consistent praise for humor and charm. Some find it less punishing than Crypt of the Necrodancer, and a few wish for an audio-visual offset slider. The game is not very long but offers a satisfying loop of dodging and attacking on beat.
