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 quick, challenging arcade shooter where you dodge and destroy swarms of ships with escalating difficulty and power-ups.

What players say

Players compare it to Asteroids from 1979, calling it either a fun reimagining or a lazy ripoff. The WASD controls and simple gameplay divide opinion, though many praise the evolving visuals and color palette. Sound effects are noted as repetitive.
