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 arcade shooter where each quick play session escalates unpredictably, rewarding aggressive scoring under mounting pressure.

What players say

Players praise the pixel art and soundtrack, calling it a convincing tribute to 1990s arcade shooters. The game is built around 3- or 5-minute caravan rounds with randomized waves, but many find the sessions too short and the bullet storms punishing. Some note the high difficulty thanks to a dynamic rank system, while others say practice reveals a rewarding rhythm.
