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

Frantically blasting through pixelated hordes in a frantic space train escape with frantic weapon pickups and simple objectives.

What players say

Players are split: some find it a decent pixel roguelike for a few dollars, others call it slow, boring and not worth even the sale price. It is short, just three levels, with no save system and low replayability.
