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-paced arcade shoot 'em up with a focus on offensive and defensive laser mechanics, offering retro scrolling shooter action.

What players say

Players praise the soundtrack and bullet canceling mechanic, but note that enemies are very hard to kill, some bullets blend into backgrounds, and bosses feel like bullet sponges. It is a simple-looking but deep shmup originally from mobile.
