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, colorful bullet hell where you and a friend blast through hordes as cute but deadly axolotls.

What players say

Players are split on AK-xolotl. Many bought it for co-op and found it broken or clunky, with bugs and no updates for over a year. Others enjoy the single-player bullet hell action and cute axolotls, calling it solid or fun despite being hard and unbalanced.
