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 race beat-up but resilient cars across long, varied tracks under changing weather, feeling the raw, unpolished energy of arcade offroad driving.

What players say

Players call this an enjoyable but unfinished arcade racer from a solo developer. The car handling and sense of speed get praise, but the AI is far too easy with no difficulty setting, controller support is partial, and the game is buggy with repetitive music. Players are split on whether the low price justifies the rough edges.
