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, lighthearted shooter where every missed shot plants a weapon and the pace stays buoyant and absurd

What players say

Players love the core mechanics of planting and swapping guns, but nearly everyone warns that the multiplayer is dead, leaving mostly bots. A few players enjoy horde mode or playing with friends, and long-time fans appreciate the steady free content updates.
