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 multiplayer arena game where players control lines, shooting and dodging in quick rounds with strategic use of limited shots and clears.

What players say

Players describe it as a basic Snake clone with neon backgrounds and no compelling improvements. The lack of AI opponents limits single-player appeal, and the high speed makes it punishing.
