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, hypnotic arcade shooter where you dodge bullet hells while piecing together a custom contraption from collected pixel bits.

What players say

Players find it a novel but shallow survivor-like where you stack pixels into a fortress. Many say it is far too easy and gets boring quickly, while a memory leak after an hour also draws complaints. Some enjoy it as a cheap quick-play title for short sessions.
