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 bright, retro arcade block-breaker with handcrafted levels, playful power-ups, and precise paddle control that feels satisfyingly skill-based and gradually tougher.

What players say

Players say Galactic Breakout is a straightforward take on the classic breakout formula with colorful pixel graphics and a soundtrack that stands out. The powerups and debuffs mix things up randomly, and the game is short enough not to outstay its welcome. It is seen as a relaxing way to spend a few hours for a low price.
