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 bullet-hell fishing game where you blast aggressive fish with a hook and guns, blending chaotic action with silly humor.

What players say

Players praise the game's humor and unique blend of fishing with bullet hell, but many note that the early game feels slow and painful due to a sluggish hook and reliance on health items. Opinion is split on whether the difficulty is engaging or frustrating, and while the game is cheap, some wish for better tutorials and quality of life improvements.
