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, punishing arcade experience where cute visuals clash with relentless, deadly obstacles and constant death.

What players say

Players describe DUNKYPUNG as a brutally hard one-button arcade game that is addictively built around 'just one more try' loops. While most find the challenge fair and the controls predictable, some reviewers call later stages luck-based and find the yellow color scheme fatiguing.
