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, retro-inspired twin-stick shooter where you must quickly pause and teleport to survive waves of enemies, chasing high scores on leaderboards.

What players say

Players are split on this twin-stick shooter: some praise its unique art and time-freeze mechanic, while others dismiss it as a poor Geometry Wars clone with weak graphics. The tutorial is unclear and the player base is nearly nonexistent, but those who enjoy it find the visuals and music appealing.
