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 cute and chaotic roguelite shooter where you dash through enemies, grab money and upgrades, and blast everything in sight.

What players say

Players describe a roguelite bullet hell that turns the format of deceptive mobile game ads into a real, casual shmup with Touhou-style gameplay and stat upgrades between runs. Some report severe motion sickness from the constant downward scrolling. Beating the game with all characters unlocked leaves the story unresolved.
