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 tongue-in-cheek, revolutionary base-building defense game where you fortify rockets against waves of cartoonish capitalists.

What players say

Players call it a short story-driven tower defense, finishable in around two and a half hours, and agree it is easy, often mindless. They praise the music, art, and comedy but note placement options are limited and towers cannot be rearranged, so replay value is low. Fans of the robot girl characters wish for more content and updates.
