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

The game feels like a frantic juggling act between commanding fleets and shooting enemies firsthand, with base-building on asteroids adding a grounded spatial tension.

What players say

Players praise the unique blend of RTS and FPS gameplay, but criticize poor optimization, a bare-bones interface, and a lack of content like story or quests. Opinions split on whether the game is great fun with friends or a boring, unpolished experience not worth full price.
