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

Piloting a heavily customizable mech suit through intense, fast-paced battles against alien beasts.

What players say

Players love building mechs in incredible detail, but almost everything else disappoints. The combat is repetitive and enemies are bullet sponges, the story is widely panned as anime trope-filled, the UI is clunky, and late game requires heavy grinding. Long-time players say development stalled and the game was abandoned.
