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 frantic, colourful arcade shooter where you fling shells at goofy monsters with a coin-pusher-like feel, all set to a bubbly, comic adventure tone.

What players say

Players enjoy this as a lively, simple coin pusher with arcade shooting elements, but many find boss difficulty spikes frustrating and say progress stalls without rapid-fire controller tricks.
