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 fast-paced 2D action game where you collect power-ups by killing zombies while risking losing them when hit.

What players say

Players praise GunGirl 2 as a fast-paced metroidvania with a great soundtrack and generous save points, often comparing it to Cave Story. Some note the spike platform sections are annoying, and a few find the art style an acquired taste, but most consider it a fun, underrated free game that holds up years later.
