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, skill-reliant action game where you blast mutants with a lightning gun until rain forces you to switch to ordinary weapons, demanding mastery of combos and rocket-jumping under punishing old-school difficulty.

What players say

Players praise the chain lightning gun for both combat and movement, and describe the game as challenging at first but satisfying once mastered. Some say it feels like a basic Flash game, while others highlight its depth in scoring and unlockables.
