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 fast and addictive retro arcade shooter that feels like a classic coin-op with modern leaderboard and skin-collection hooks.

What players say

Players say the arcade shooter is fast-paced and worth the low price, but split on whether simple controls and swarming enemies add challenge or feel amateur.
