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 horizontal shoot 'em up with retro MSX visuals and a refreshingly fair, quarter-free arcade challenge.

What players say
Players praise the free MSX-style shmup for its great soundtrack and flexible weapon system, but they are split on difficulty, many find it brutally hard, even compared to old shooters, while a few say it is too easy. Options like toggleable checkpoints and adjustable lives are appreciated.
