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 breezy, low-stakes third-person shooter where quick weapon swaps and noticing tiny everyday objects on playful maps are the keys to victory.

What players say

Players are overwhelmingly disappointed with this re-release, calling it a downgrade from the original MicroVolts. They report empty servers, bugs, hackers, missing cosmetics, and no meaningful updates since launch.
