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 nostalgic rush of 8-bit arcade action with tight, punishing platforming that feels both solo and multiplayer frantic.

What players say
Players compare it to Joust and Bubble Bobble but feel the controls are its biggest weakness, with no d-pad support and tank-like movement that makes maneuvering frustrating. The level design and music draw criticism, though some appreciate the pure 8-bit arcade spirit and forgiving price.
