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

You frantically dodge and volley glowing projectiles in a neon-lit space arena to a pulsing synthwave beat.

What players say

Players describe it as a VR mix of racquetball and shooting, where you teleport between platforms, match colors to destroy drones, and return fire with a racket in one hand and a gun in the other. The campaign is short and singleplayer only, with some finding the content limited and arenas repetitive.
