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 chaotic blend of frantic base defense and skill-based shooting where you and a friend scramble to upgrade everything while mowing down endless waves of zombies.

What players say

Players praise the addictive arcade loop, unlock progression, and co-op, but some find it too hard. The soundtrack is widely loved. A minority of reviews claim the game's positive rating is inflated by fake accounts from friends of the developer.
