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.

What players say

Players compare Space Robinson to Nuclear Throne and Enter the Gungeon, often finding it easier and quicker to beat. Opinions split on gameplay: some call it streamlined and fun, others find it mediocre or boring. The weapon feel draws mixed reactions, and long-time players say content is thin.
