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, cartoony looter shooter where you blast through hordes of monsters across colorful dimensions, collect epic loot, and upgrade your gear between runs.

What players say

Players are split: many praise the addictive looting and satisfying weapons, but others warn it's too grindy and repetitive. A recurring complaint is that the game was abandoned in Early Access, though the developers later announced a return to development. Opinions vary on weapon variety and lack of endgame content.
