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

You pilot a shrunken spaceship that can't stop, frantically dodging obstacles and blasting through a chaotic alien-infested facility.

What players say

Players describe it as a fast-paced on-rail shooter with no brakes on the ship, leading to frantic runs. The story is machine-translated and textures look like asset store assets, but performance is fine.
