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-energy side-scroller where you and a partner blast through hordes of enemies with over-the-top weapons and explosive action.

What players say
Players praise the frantic, fluid action and tight controls, often comparing it favorably to Contra. The Steam version is a straightforward emulation of the Genesis original, with save slots and filter options but no online co-op. A minority note it is easier than Contra Hard Corps.
