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 heavy, customizable mechs in deliberate, team-focused battles that reward tactical positioning and loadout mastery.

What players say

Players say this is a strategic, team-based mech shooter that rewards customization and communication. Some feel the player base is shrinking and the game is in maintenance mode, but it still has a dedicated community and regular events that give away free mechs.
