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 brisk, score-chasing arcade shoot-'em-up that updates classic vertical blasting action with a 3D perspective and new firepower to master.

About

Xevious 3D/G+ is a compilation of four titles: Xevious 3D/G (main game), Xevious (Arcade version), Super Xevious (Arcade version) and Xevious Arrangement. Xevious 3D/G+ puts the classic arcade vertical shoot 'm up Xevious game in a third-person 3D perspective. The game brings some new weapon systems to the player-controlled fighter jet and contains many new enemies, some of which are quite large and pose new challenges to the player. During the game the player can collect three types of power-ups: bullets, lasers and plasma beams.
