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, procedurally generated top-down action roguelike with pixel art, centered on Chinese cultivation mythology and chaotic bullet-hell combat.

What players say

Players praise the wide build variety and xianxia theme, but many report the game runs poorly with stuttering, levels feel samey, and enemies become health sponges. Reviews split on the RNG and meta progression, with some calling it addictive and others finding the difficulty curve frustrating.
