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

You blast through waves of aliens in frantic arcade combat, building up your mercenary and weapons with a rock soundtrack pulsing in the background.

What players say

Players are split on this arcade shooter. Some enjoy the horde mode with tower defense elements and loot boxes, but many call it an unfinished, abandoned game with glitches and terrible controls.
