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 frantic, action-packed crossover brawler that feels like a chaotic festival of indie mascots hammering each other in pixelated arenas.

What players say

Players are split on Indie Pogo. Some enjoy the always-jumping gimmick as a silly party game with friends, but many say it runs out of depth after an hour or two, and the online is dead with no new updates coming. The slow pacing and reliance on hopping plus heavies leaves some calling it a neutered Smash.
