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 fast-paced, retro-inspired arcade collection that feels like stepping into a classic shoot-em-up and platformer with a modern, clean twist.

What players say

Players praise this two-game collection from legendary designer Jeff Minter, especially the Gridrunner shooter and the quirky platformer Goat Up. The VR mode is a standout for Oculus users, but some report it does not work with other headsets or has technical issues on certain computers.
