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
It feels like a bright and chaotic top-down arcade shooter where you pilot a jet through colorful aerial battles and deflect enemy fire.

What players say
Players call it a worthy tribute to River Raid that adds modern features like ship upgrades and a health bar. They find it challenging at first but say it becomes more manageable as you evolve your ship. The soundtrack and colorful visuals are praised, though some feel the extra mechanics lose the original's simplicity.
