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 frantic arcade shooter where your ship constantly transforms as you absorb enemies, keeping you on edge with unpredictable new forms and attacks.

About
Darwin 4078 is a shooting game released by Data East in 1986. Your ship evolves by absorbing life forms that it converts into energy, and changes shape as well as evolving new attacks and characteristics. There are also mutations that do not follow the evolutionary path, and you can end up with unique ships you never would have imagined!
