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 tense, meditative shmup where each decision narrows both space and mind, forcing you to balance progress against inevitable decay.

What players say
Players praise the unique screen-repair mechanic that sets this shmup apart, but note it is very short at only four levels. The final level is a difficulty spike. Some players report performance issues like slowdown, while others see it as a free student project with limited content.
