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

Piloting a constantly moving drone through chaotic, colorful space environments while collecting items and avoiding hazards feels frantic and exhilarating.

What players say

Players say the controls take time to learn, and the lack of a tutorial is a point of disagreement. It is a remake with over 50 levels, and some note the music and sound effects carry over from the original. The game works with mouse and keyboard too, not just VR.
