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.

What players say

Players call it a polished 20 to 30 minute shooter with punchy gunplay and charming cutscenes, though some hit bugs and find the controls clunky. The main complaint is that it ends after a single boss, with many asking for a full game or extra content.
