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 hands-off, satisfying bullet-hell survival game with automatic attacks and a relaxing sense of progression as you grow stronger through each run.

What players say

Players widely agree the game was abandoned after leaving early access, leaving it feeling unfinished and short on content. Some find it a decent budget distraction for a few hours, but most recommend skipping it for other games in the genre.
