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, arcade-style climb through collapsing dungeons where rapid gun transformations and tough enemies keep the pressure high, but a lighthearted tone and pixel charm make the chaos fun.

What players say

Players consistently compare it to Enter the Gungeon and find it a downgrade. The game is more chaotic and fast-paced, with randomly cycling weapons and small platforms that frustrate many. Some praise the creativity of bosses, but technical bugs and a lack of content lead most to recommend the original instead.
