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 blistering, neon-soaked movement shooter where every run is a frantic scramble through procedurally generated gauntlets, demanding quick reflexes and punishing death with a full reset.

What players say

Players agree the core gameplay is fun but the game feels abandoned since its 2021 roadmap was never delivered. It gets repetitive fast and lacks variety, with complaints about missing keybinding, strong recoil, and crashes.
