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, abstract obstacle course where simple geometric enemies overwhelm you through sheer numbers and environmental shifts.

What players say

Players describe Abstract Hell as an extremely difficult Pac-Man-like twin-stick shooter where dozens of fast enemies overwhelm you. Opinions split: some find it rewarding to master, while others call it unbalanced and repetitive, noting the developer abandoned it early.
