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.

About

D Pistols is a fast-paced one-button game. You are constantly moving up and down. You goal is to shoot all the enemies that are coming from the sides of the screen. When the enemies reach the middle of the screen they will go up or down depending on your current position. Press a button to change your direction and shoot sideways. Hold a button to charge and shoot in all four directions. The game is over when any enemy touches you.
