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 focused on chasing high scores and surviving relentless alien waves.

What players say

Players call this a solid Space Invaders clone with more variety than expected, offering modes like time attack and hardcore alongside local co-op. Opinions split on value: many say grab it on sale for a dollar, while some find the lack of native controller support and simple gameplay a letdown.
