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, chaotic twin-stick shooter where you mix elements on the fly in fast-paced battles.

What players say

Players praise the fast, chaotic combat and fluid element-mixing system, comparing it to Magicka and Enter the Gungeon. Runs are short, under half an hour, and the game rewards precision and speed. One dissenter says the build system feels random and the game can't decide on its roguelike structure.
