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 minimalist arcade challenge that demands precise reflexes as you spin a spaceship through color-coded gates.

What players say

Players report it is a very short, simple tunnel-dodge game that does not get harder as you progress, making it feel more like an achievement grind than a reflex challenge. Some call it a Unity asset flip and criticize the publisher for known asset-flipping behavior, while others find it an okay time-waster for under a dollar.
