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 dance of positioning where you steer a ship bristling with auto-firing guns through swarms of enemies, demanding quick reflexes and strategic angling.

What players say

Players say the auto-shooter is fun and addictive, especially with friends, but the RNG can ruin runs and performance drops on heavy builds are a problem. Some compare it favorably to Nova Drift.
