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

Pummeling skeletons with guitar-shaped weapons in time to thundering heavy metal tracks feels like being a rock god in a frantic arcade brawler.

What players say

Players enjoy the heavy metal soundtrack and fantasy setting, but the game is clearly early access. The biggest complaint is how closely it mimics Beat Saber, and that collision detection feels off. There are only four songs and a few environments, which leaves players wanting more.
