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 bare-bones vertical shooter that throws you straight into old-school bullet-dodging action with none of the story or personality that once surrounded it.

About
Mobile Light Force is a sloppy localization of the first Gunbird for PlayStation originally released in 1994. This localization removed all plot-related elements including cutscenes and endings, took the in-game's fan art gallery and renamed some characters with names taken from XS Games employees. The game's cover art and title screen also feature a completely unrelated artwork featuring characters resembling the main trio from Charlie's Angels. This realistic artwork is the complete opposite of the anime-styled aesthetics of Gunbird, and the characters displayed don't appear anywhere in the actual game.
