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 frantic, retro-style brawler where you fight through waves of enemies using special abilities that charge up as you land hits, with permadeath and upgrade shopping between runs.

What players say

Players enjoy the simple arena brawler action and pixel art, but split on the difficulty: some find enemies very challenging while others find the game simple.
