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, high-stakes FPS where you dash through twisted carnival arenas, blasting relentless hordes with custom guns while managing scarce resources and permadeath tension.

What players say

Players split on this wave-based shooter's soul. Fans enjoy the low-poly art and round-based progression with elemental bullets and boss fights every four waves, but critics call it a soulless mobile-like port with bland combat and no music. Some report a crash after wave 5 from an out-of-memory error. Many agree it needs more polish and content.
