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 fast-paced twin-stick shooter with intense, arcade-style combat against swarms of aliens, offering both single-player and online co-op.

What players say

Players say this modern update of the classic Amiga game is fun and well-paced but fairly short. Some note the manual camera control and blue-only terminal screen are drawbacks, while co-op improves the experience.
