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 fast-paced arcade twin-stick shooter with retro pixel graphics that feels like playing a classic 90s shoot 'em up, requiring quick reflexes and resource management.

What players say

Players enjoy the tight controls and satisfying lock-on missiles, but note a steep difficulty with limited resources and no continues. Some find the missions become repetitive in later stages, and sound design is sparse. Reviews split on whether the lack of save progress or power-ups is a flaw.
