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 frantic, top-down twin-stick shooter where you dodge bullet hells and loot upgrades in procedurally generated cyberpunk runs.

What players say

Players say Danger Scavenger is a fast-paced roguelite shooter with short runs and a lot of loot, but opinions split on its difficulty and variety. Some find it too easy and beat it on the first try, others run into balance issues like stacking discount items that break the economy. Controller support works for most but has quirks, and co-op requires Steam Remote Play.
