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

It's a chaotic physics-driven party brawl where players fling each other around as wacky employees, with light progression and goofy power-up combos.

What players say

Players call it a simplified Smash Bros meets Gang Beasts, with power-ups between rounds and a decent map count. The fun is intense and chaotic for groups, though some wish for a solo mode and others find it unbalanced.
