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

Played as a fast-paced, arcade-style brawler with crunchy pixel combat and rising difficulty across dozens of stages.

What players say

Players praise the nostalgic 90s arcade vibe and music, but many criticize the controls for lag, uncertain hitboxes, and lack of defensive moves. Opinions split on difficulty: some find it forgiving early on, others hit a wall by the final level. A crash bug on stage 2 is reported by at least one reviewer.
