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 relentless, high-speed shoot-’em-up where waves of enemy fire fill the screen, demanding sharp reflexes and quick dodging.

What players say

Players praise the varied arsenal and how you can switch between laser, sword, and rockets mid-combo. The soundtrack gets consistent love. The story is a highlight, giving missions a sense of purpose rare in the genre. Difficulty is high and the 4:3 aspect ratio may take getting used to.
