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 familiar arcade twist on Breakout with missile-launching mechanics and bright, chaotic effects.

What players say

Players call this a Breakout clone with a twist where a missile system replaces the ball's direct destruction. Opinion splits: some find it addictive and colourful, others call it a lazy rip-off with headache-inducing visuals and music. A common complaint is the lack of a save feature.
