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 rhythmic, retro-flavored DJ experience where you tap along to chiptune beats against pixel-art backdrops, balancing easy entry with a perfect-score challenge.

What players say

Players like the chiptune music and pixel art but are split on the gameplay, which one reviewer says is color matching rather than a true rhythm game. There are only 13 songs with no editor or unlockables, the UI has minor annoyances, and the hit sounds clash with the music.
