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 frantic arcade battle where you defend your mothership from colorful alien hordes with twin-stick shooting and tower defense mechanics.

What players say

Players appreciate the mix of top-down shooting and tower defense, with daily enemy rotations and leaderboards offering quick 20-minute runs. However, many find the game lacks a satisfying end goal or progression, and some criticize the controls and camera for feeling clunky and unfair.
