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 puzzle-infused bullet hell where each encounter demands a fresh tactical approach, blending frantic shooting with thoughtful problem-solving.

What players say

Players describe Flowing Lights as a unique hybrid that merges twin-stick shooting with physics puzzles and gravity. The game is split into short, graded segments, and the difficulty spikes hard later on. Some find the ship's floaty controls frustrating to fight against.
