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, explosive twin-stick shooter where every tiny voxel can be blown apart, making each encounter feel chaotic and satisfying.

What players say

Players praise the voxel-based destructible environments and responsive controls, but nearly all mention the game was abandoned by the developer in 2016 with very few maps, making it short. Once the last level is beaten, only endless grind remains, and a fully upgraded character becomes unkillable.
