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 challenging, retro-styled beat 'em up that demands precise input timing and dedicated practice to master distinct martial arts styles, with a lighthearted comedic tone.

What players say

Players love the authentic kung fu movie feel and unique combat that blends rhythm game timing with beat-em-up action, but many note it is short and rough around the edges with clunky controls, buggy training sequences, and a risk of softlocks.
