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, intense arcade air combat game with short randomized runs, easy to pick up and hard to master.

What players say

Players are split on Top Dog. Many love the fast arcade combat and quick roguelike runs, saying it captures the feel of Ace Combat and is easy to jump into. However, others complain about the controls fighting the player, awkward missile targeting, and a lack of feedback. A notable point of frustration is the removal of an endless mode that some players say existed before full release.
