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 VR shooter where you ride a slime beast and blast through bizarre enemies with over-the-top, absurd violence.

What players say

Players love the classic Doom-style shooting and the retro sprite art, but the movement system divides them: some enjoy steering a snail with a carrot, others find it tiring or imprecise. The campaign runs about 5 hours and offers a genuine challenge, though a few report frame drops.
