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 fast-paced arcade shooter where you systematically chip away at pixelated enemies, aiming for the fastest completion times against a leaderboard.

What players say

Players are split on Chippy. Some enjoy dismantling bosses piece by piece and praise the workshop, while others find the difficulty unfair due to poor readability and luck-driven deaths. A few also report broken orthogonal aiming.
