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 cheerful, pixel-art RPGMaker adventure with turn-based combat, multiple endings, and a deceptively happy surface that hints at hidden lore and secrets.

What players say

Players praise the unique ms paint art and gritty music, though some find the music grating. The RPGmaker gameplay can be repetitive, but boss fights have creative gimmicks. The story has multiple endings and players feel compelled to return.
