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 relentless arcade shoot-'em-up where you zip through enemy swarms as a tiny spacecraft, dodging dense patterns of bullets.

What players say
Players praise it as a solid successor to The Guardian Legend, blending top-down run-and-gun levels with shmup boss escapes. The game is short but well-paced, with unlimited lives and checkpoints that make it welcoming for shmup newcomers, though some find the flying levels repetitive and the enemy variety lacking.
