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 chaotic, fast-paced arcade shooter where players brawl in a colorful western world with zany physics and silly weapons.

What players say

Players love the physics and bar-brawl chaos, especially with friends, but consistently warn that online is dead, finding matches is nearly impossible without a group. The game is polished but thin, with just three maps and three guns.
