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 frantic, story-driven shooter where you blast through alien mutants with a robot buddy and an arsenal of colorful guns.

What players say

Players praise the comic-style art but split on controls: aiming with a cursor feels laggy on controller and unfinished on mouse, making a gamepad almost mandatory. The story is a short buddy comedy with a robot sidekick, lasting about 90 minutes, and the challenge leans on tight hallways and heavy screen shake.
