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.

What players say

Players praise the responsive controls, clever level design, and rewarding progression, with the 1v1 multiplayer a highlight for a small game. The cell-shaded graphics draw comparisons to Borderlands, though some find the experience repetitive after a few hours and note menu or control quirks the developer promised to address.
