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, fast-paced arcade game where you mash buttons to dodge and bounce, feeling chaotic and fun.

What players say

Players enjoy the tight, addictive arcade loop of digging and shooting through procedurally generated caves, but many note the single stage and limited variety leaves them wanting more. Opinions split on controls: some find them smooth and responsive while one reviewer calls them imprecise and unpleasant.
