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, high-speed arcade shooter where you dodge relentless enemy waves on twisting 3D grids, chasing high scores with tight controls and a pulsing beat.

What players say

Players love the responsive gameplay and audiovisual design, often using it as a warm up or cool down game. A technical note: the Linux version's leaderboard and save system is broken, forcing Proton use.
