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, arcade-style action game where you feel like a resourceful saboteur using a mix of run-and-gun combat and tower-defense strategies to overwhelm enemies.

What players say

Players are split on RedEx. Some enjoy it as a cheap arcade time-waster, but most criticize its lack of tutorial, poor controls, and unfinished state with spelling errors and crashes. A few call it a template flip, and long-time players say development stopped after release.
