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.

A no-frills arcade shooter where you weave through enemy fire, manage dwindling fuel and ammo, and chase a high score across thirteen missions.

About

The game offers thirteen missions in which you have to shoot down enemy aircrafts and mechs with either bullets or missiles while trying to avoid enemy fire. Both bullets and missiles will deplete as will your fuel. Fuel and ammunition can be replenished during missions by flying through a green ring saying fuel or bullets. You start the game with three lives and shooting down enemies earns you points for a high score, sometimes bonus points can be collected by flying through a green ring saying the number of points.
