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

an over-the-top arcade racing game where you blast other cars with rockets and machine guns while speeding through tracks in a wild, humorous, and casually addictive frenzy.

What players say

Players call it a fun arcade combat racer with heavy-feeling physics and a short campaign of 6 to 7 hours. Multiplayer no longer works properly, so it is essentially a single-player game. Some compare it favorably to Crashday or a chaotic alternative to Flatout, though a few note the bot AI can be annoying in arenas.
