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 and punishing arcade-like bullet hell where you juggle disks and combine relics to escape hell's clutches.

What players say

Players say the game was abandoned by its developer, who moved on to another project without communicating. The initial gameplay is fun and innovative, combining bullet hell with brick-breaking, but after only a few runs the content repeats and difficulty stays low. A handful of players still recommend it for its cheap price and addictive core loop.
