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 fast and polished arcade shooter where you match colored boxes to goals, chasing high scores in short, escalating rounds.

What players say

Players describe a simple, polished arcade shooter that is addictive for short sessions but gets repetitive. Some note sudden frame drops in busy moments, and that the different ships don't change how the game plays.
