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

Heart-pounding arcade air-combat racing where you aggressively overtake and shoot down opponents for victory.

What players say

Players describe a short 4-hour arcade racer with power-up combat and a steep difficulty curve even on easy. Online multiplayer is dead, and the base game lacks local play, though the 'Infinity' version adds it.
