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 chaotic couch multiplayer game where simple controls and rocket jumps lead to constant explosions and laughs with friends.

What players say

Players say the game is a fun local multiplayer party game, but a controller is required and there is no keyboard support. Development stopped in 2015, leaving little content and no updates. The controls are intentionally chaotic and the gameplay is compared to Smash Bros.
