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 high-speed arcade racer where you pilot a spaceship through geometric levels at ever-increasing speeds, requiring precise maneuvering and quick reflexes.

What players say
Players compare it to Tempest and praise the Vectrex-style visuals and synth soundtrack, but opinions split on the gameplay. Some find it addictive and satisfying, while others say unskippable level previews and repetitive memorization make it feel slow and shallow.
