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 slow, meditative puzzle shooter where you deliberately navigate colorful bullet patterns, feeling like a calm exploration of inner thoughts.

What players say

Players praise the original concept of dodging your own bouncing bullets in tight spaces, calling it a fun puzzle-arcade hybrid. But many warn it is short, around 50 levels, and some report a game-breaking bug on the fan dance level late in the game.
