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 an extremely short space shooter that takes about five minutes to finish, made with unpolished art and sound. Many compare it unfavorably to Asteroids and say it feels like a school project or a free game that used to cost money.
