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

Fast-paced top-down space combat with tactical indirect fights and pixelated destruction against massive fleets.

What players say

Players praise the tether-based grappling as a fresh and satisfying core mechanic, with physics-driven combat that feels like a puzzle. However, some are frustrated by the lack of checkpoints across 50 waves, forcing restarts from the beginning.
