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 high-speed, retro-styled shoot-'em-up with relentless bullet patterns and a demanding pace.

What players say

Players praise Zenodyne R as a solid retro shmup with fast bullets and a well-tuned difficulty curve that rewards practice. The simple, colorful visuals are a split point: some find them hard on the eyes while others appreciate the clarity. A common complaint is that the game only supports keyboard or xinput controllers, leaving some players unable to use their gamepads.
