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 arcade shooter with satisfying upgrades and a competitive drive to beat high scores.

What players say

An arcade space shooter with strong ship customization and music selection, but players are split on its controls, some find them responsive while others call them poor. The campaign is short and the weapon variety limited, leading to repetitive combat.
