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, neon-bright arcade brawler that mixes classic 80s game modes with slick 3D visuals and smooth split-screen action.

What players say

Players describe it as a Tron-inspired arcade racer with two modes, maze and snake. The core loop is addictive, driven by leaderboard times and instant restarts after crashing. Currently in early access, players are waiting for promised arena mode and multiplayer, and some find mazes frustrating without a map.
