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, old-school arcade shooter where you dodge and blast space debris in tight, pixelated combat.

What players say

Players describe a simple, retro 2D arcade where you dodge and shoot asteroids with a mouse-controlled ship. Some find the controls tricky to get used to, and while the gameplay is relaxing and addictive, many say the price is too high unless bought on sale.
