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-themed space shooter where you blast aliens while navigating platforms across colorful 2D levels.

What players say

Players report severe technical issues, with audio only playing from one speaker and image loading bugs. Controls are a major point of frustration, often only working with the mouse. A few players find charm in the clay-like visuals and score-chasing, but most call the game poorly made and not worth playing.
