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.

About

Battle Frenzy is a 1994 video game developed by Jim Blackler for Domark Software and published by Acclaim in 1994 for the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis console in Europe only. A North American release was planned, and even reviewed in gaming magazines,[1][2] but never actually came out. The game was re-released the same year for both the Mega Drive and the Sega CD as Bloodshot, again only in Europe, though the Sega CD version had a homebrew release in North America in 2004. Battle Frenzy was one of the few first person shooters released on the Mega Drive/Genesis.
