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 sleek, minimalist bullet-hell where you weave through vibrant levels at your own pace, balancing tense dodging with serene exploration.

What players say

A puzzle game that fuses bullet-hell dodging with pacifist obstacle courses and direct mouse control. Players praise the large variety of level gimmicks, but some find the star-chasing for completion frustrating.
