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 first-person arcade racer where you must balance high-risk drifts against deadly police chases while managing limited health.

What players say

Players say the game is a free drifting prototype with an empty, lifeless city and almost no content beyond the basic mechanic. There is a broken achievement and graphics settings that do not affect performance. A few find it a fun short distraction.
