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, retro-style multiplayer brawler where you toss jars and bombs at friends in pixelated arenas for quick, funny sessions.

What players say

Players love it with friends, calling it a chaotic party game with fun characters and stages, but note there is no CPU or single-player mode and some report weird bugs with controls and movement.
