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 fast, arcade-style shoot 'em up that demands precise movement and quick reflexes through relentless waves of enemies.

What players say

Players praise the game for its authentic retro arcade feel and excellent soundtrack, but note that it is challenging and may frustrate newcomers. Some point out a large, unforgiving hitbox and a very slow ship speed until you find a rare powerup.
