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 darkly comic arcade puzzler where you carefully line up one powerful laser shot per level to trigger chain reactions.

What players say

Players enjoy the simple premise of firing a single laser per level to chain-destroy enemies, finding the timing satisfying and the soundtrack memorable. The pixel art and dark humor get consistent praise, though some wish the 99 levels were longer.
