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 slow-paced tower defense set in space where gravity alters projectile paths and darkness forces careful flashlight use.

What players say

Players describe a short, simple arcade game where you defend planets from asteroids and UFOs. Gravity affects missile trajectories, and new weapons appear on later levels. Some call it a fine time waster for a low price, while others flag it as a Unity asset flip.
