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
You must outsmart a reactive AI by plotting a custom path through shifting defenses, each move a calculated gamble.

What players say
Players say BYTES flips tower defense on its head by having you build the path and the AI place the towers. Some cite bugs that freeze the game during dialog, but most enjoy the puzzle-like strategy and the ability to customize waves.
