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 lightning-fast, brutal top-down shooter with a cyberpunk aesthetic, demanding precise reflexes and a blend of overwhelming force and elegant strikes.

What players say
Players praise its cyberpunk art style and visceral combat, but opinions split on the controls: some find them floaty and awkward, while others say the slo-mo dash is key. Many compare it to Hotline Miami and Katana Zero, noting it is tougher and more arena-based. Several flag excessive screen flash and no option to disable it. The game is short, best played with a controller.
