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, challenging boss rush roguelike that feels frantic and playful yet unsettling, with bright pixel art masking a dark dreamscape.

What players say

Players enjoy the teleportation-based roguelike gameplay and compare it favorably to Binding of Isaac, but note it becomes quite challenging. Reviews are split on content: some praise the variety of bosses while others are disappointed by the lack of an endless mode and a raw, unfinished feel. The developers are praised as invested and responsive.
