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 rescue where you jetpack through burning buildings, smash through obstacles, and save civilians with a high-pressure hose.

What players say

Players praise the unique hose-based movement and pixel art but warn the game has only four levels, grows repetitive quickly, and feels unpolished. Many recommend buying only on sale.
