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-paced retro arcade shooter with strategic super attacks and adjustable difficulty that feels exhilarating and challenging to master.

What players say

Players praise the tight arcade action and satisfying charge-shot system, but warn of cheap late-game boss lasers and a freeze-on-pause bug. There is disagreement on difficulty: some find it easier than other Psikyo shooters, while others say it is still punishing. A few note the lack of higher resolution support.
