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 chaotic, high-octane arcade racer that throws you into the heart-pounding slipstream of old-school 90s speed, with tight, physics-driven handling demanding precise, strategic maneuvering.

What players say

Players call it the IndyCar version of Daytona USA, a straightforward arcade racer made by a single developer. The speed and 1990s Sega feel are praised, but the AI is very slow and lacks difficulty options, hurting replayability.
