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 chaotic, tongue-in-cheek side-scrolling run and gun where a cartoon baby fires a bottle in wild patterns through a darkly humorous city nightlife.

What players say

Players describe it as a short, funny action platformer with adult-oriented humor and full voice acting. The game is about 30 minutes long with 12 levels, and while some find enemies respawn too fast or shoot unfairly, there is an easy difficulty to see all cutscenes.
