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 retro space shooter where you blast through waves of alien invaders while collecting upgrades to power up your ship.

What players say

Players say Galactic Battles is a basic asset flip built from a Construct 2 template, offering a repetitive and meditative scroll-shooter with no story. Controls feel stiff, the game starts hard then becomes easy, and achievements do not work.
