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 punishing, retro-styled arcade shooter where you mow down endless waves of undead with a satisfying rifle.

What players say

Players describe this as a retro-style arcade shooter where you survive waves of zombies on arenas. Some find the visual filter and camera shake hard on the eyes, and say the powerful pickups make it too easy. Opinions split on long-term appeal, with some calling it meditative for short bursts and others bored quickly.
