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

Flying a fighter plane in a frantic, arcade-style shoot 'em up with waves of enemies and simple weapon upgrades.

What players say

Players describe a free, retro-style vertical shooter with simple mechanics and very short, repetitive levels. The game is widely seen as a basic template with no real level design, and its many paid DLC packs are viewed as a gimmick. Controls on keyboard are awkward.
