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, high-speed arcade racer where smashing opponents and pulling off wild stunts is just as important as crossing the finish line first.

What players say

Players call this a loving spiritual successor to the 2000s game Need for Madness, capturing the arcade destruction physics but noting it is too short and that cars lack distinct feel. Fans are split on the physics, calling them crunchy or in need of polish, and report AI pathfinding quirks and terrain slowdowns.
