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 free-for-all where you dodge and blast friends in tiny ships, with quick rounds and playful mayhem.

What players say

Players call it a fun couch party game that evokes classic arcade shooters like Asteroids. It supports local multiplayer only, and some reviewers note it has no online mode. The soundtrack and controls get praise, but a few warn it is unappealing without friends to play with.
