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 frantic, quirky survival shooter where you race against time to collect fuel cells while dodging mutated spiders in a sci-fi research station.

What players say

Players describe it as a mix of Pacman and capture the flag, with randomly generated mazes and phasers to trap spiders. The music and difficulty scale together, and the X-ray powerup helps you find fuel cells. Some say it gets repetitive, and the game ran poorly on low-end hardware.
