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, retro arcade shooter with chaotic bullet hell action and roguelike perma-death that demands quick reflexes and persistence.

What players say

Players describe a nostalgic Contra-inspired shooter with jetpack movement and a generous single-life run. The game offers 20-plus weapons but some feel useless, and difficulty spikes sharply around stage 4. A common complaint is the absence of in-game volume control.
