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 frantic, bomb-throwing arcade romp that channels 80s side-scrolling action.

What players say

Players praise the 80s arcade homage with tight controls and a chunky bomb mechanic that demands timing and puzzle-like planning. The 6-stage campaign offers a satisfying challenge: easy mode requires practice, while hard mode strips continues and ramps up enemies. A few wish for more stages or an endless mode, but most find the price well worth the polished, short-burst action.
