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

Classic arcade shoot 'em up action with fast, explosive gameplay and huge multi-stage boss fights.

What players say

Players praise the arcade shoot-em-up as a visual treat and a worthy alternative to Sky Force, noting the short 2-hour campaign and local co-op. Performance bugs, especially crashes with mouse controls and on high-end systems, are a frequent complaint. Long-time players say the developer disappeared after release, leaving the game feeling unfinished.
