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 brief, cinematic arcade shooter set in a futuristic Brazil, mixing dense story cutscenes with grid-based top-down combat.

What players say

Players praise the stylish art and soundtrack but note the gameplay gets repetitive, though the short length prevents it from becoming a problem. Several mention the controls take getting used to and the story is deliberately unclear.
