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 madcap, rapid-fire twin-stick shooter where you blast through levels with constant explosions and a silly, irreverent tone.

What players say

Players call this a pure twin-stick score chaser that is brutally hard, even on easy, but the risk-reward combo system and quick levels keep them coming back for 'one more go.' Some find the difficulty spike too steep for the content offered, though most say the low price and tight controls justify it.
