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
You glide through scenic skies, carefully managing limited rocket boost to collect hoops while avoiding obstacles under a 10-minute time limit.

What players say
Players compare it to Pilotwings 64 and call it a solid VR hang glider arcade game, not a simulator. Reviews split on controls: early versions had only head tracking, but later updates added hand or controller support that many find more natural. Some find it too difficult with 100% ring requirements, others say it is a relaxing experience worth a few dollars.
