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 frantic 2D shoot 'em up where you must constantly balance energy management with evading enemy fire to unleash powerful attacks.

What players say

Players say this is a very short shoot 'em up, taking about 15-30 minutes to clear and an hour to fully complete. The three playable characters have distinct playstyles, and completing the game unlocks additional content in the developer's other game, Gearbits. The power-up mechanic draws mixed reactions, with some finding it interesting and others poorly implemented.
