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 relentless old-school platformer where you blast through hordes of futuristic monsters and face tough bosses in linear, arcade-style runs.

What players say

Players describe DEAD GUN as a simple, casual 2D shooter that runs on low-end hardware. Many note the gameplay becomes repetitive, with the shotgun being the clear best weapon and levels feeling similar throughout its short length.
