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.

What players say

Players describe A-Gents as a twin-stick shooter in the style of Metal Slug or Cannon Fodder, with local co-op and friendly fire adding chaos. However, they are split on its quality: some enjoy the quick, intense action and pixel art, while others find it repetitive, shallow, and short, especially since only two of six planned episodes were ever released.
