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

This game feels like a chaotic, fast-paced killing spree where you run, shoot, and drive through 2D levels with constant violence.

What players say

Players describe a short 2D action game about killing civilians and police as a maniac, with levels mixing combat, driving, and a flappy bird-style flying section. The driving controls feel loose, the game is buggy, achievements don't work, and players split on whether the repeated park level gets boring quickly. There is no story, just gameplay.
