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 chaotic, brutal skill-test with endless waves of enemies, upgrades, and a pounding rock soundtrack.

What players say
Players are split on The Arena Guy. Some find it a fun, cheap top-down shooter, while many others criticize it as an asset flip with weak controls, no control remapping, slow starting movement, and only one map.
