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 pixel-art action-adventure where you explore a ruined world as a cat girl, unlocking abilities and uncovering a personal and god-slaying story with a mix of cute and dark elements.

What players say

Players praise the art and music but criticize the unfinished state: missing text, clunky controls, and a first boss that feels unfair. The game is described as more linear than a true metroidvania, and multiple reviewers note a frustrating lock-up after the void god boss fight.
