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, tactical bullet hell where you dodge enemy fire and carefully choose upgrades to survive increasingly difficult waves of aliens.

What players say

Players are split on this vertical shooter that combines bullet hell with roguelike upgrades. Many praise its small size, Steam Deck compatibility, and auto-fire system, but a sizable group finds the weapons cumbersome or weak, making boss fights feel like a grind. Some note that Gunlocked 2 is already out, leaving updates scarce.
