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, cooperative arcade shooter where screen-filling chaos and escalating difficulty demand teamwork and quick reflexes to survive.

What players say

Players call it a fun, addictive twist on Asteroids with physics-driven momentum and resource collection. It shines in local multiplayer, but the lack of online co-op frustrates those misled by the tags. Some report a freeze bug that can make the game unplayable, with slow developer response.
