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 tense and punishing action roguelike that keeps you on edge with relentless zombie hordes and procedurally generated chaos.

What players say

Players are split on Ed-0. Some enjoy its quirky, low-budget charm and unique throw-item mechanics, while others find the movement clunky, upgrades meaningless, and levels too long. A common complaint is the lack of strafing, which makes targeting enemies frustrating. The final boss has a reputation for bugging out and becoming passive.
