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 fast-paced arcade run-and-gun where you blast through dungeons as a cat wielding various weapons.

What players say

Players are split: some call it a fun cheap cat game, others say it is a broken top-down shooter with clunky movement, aimbot enemies, a large cat hitbox, and a bug where pausing resets the level.
