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 smooth, stylish action game where fast combos and a thrown scythe keep the pace snappy and rewards feel liberating.

What players say

Players are split on Dreamcutter. Many praise the soundtrack and fun momentum-based platforming, but the inconsistent art direction, clunky controls, poorly designed wall jump and final boss, and a sense of being unfinished draw strong criticism. The NSFW content is seen as either a fun reward or poorly drawn and disconnected.
