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 cute and surreal side-scrolling beat 'em up where you tackle bosses and then dance to music, with a darkly humorous psychological horror twist.

What players say
Players praise the surreal aesthetic and outstanding soundtrack, but split on the gameplay: some find the rhythm-based combat and counter timing frustrating, while others enjoy its eccentric charm. The story focuses more on one character than the store page suggests, leaving some disappointed.
