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 shooter where you blast through lava fields and acid pools with absurdly placed vending machines and explosive barrels.

What players say

Players are split on Shoomer Booter. Some find it fun for a low price, but many more report serious problems: poor performance even on high-end hardware, no key rebinding or mouse sensitivity options, a broken pause menu, and settings that won't save. Gameplay complaints include scarce ammo, slow and inaccurate enemies, and monsters that look like cheap Doom knockoffs.
