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 and cute arcade platformer where you and friends defend a princess from waves of enemies with tight controls and pixel visuals.

What players say

Players split on collision detection, with some calling it broken and others praising the challenging arcade action. Many enjoy the co-op mode and short-session appeal, though the high difficulty and fixed key bindings frustrate others.
