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 shooter with retro pixel graphics that delivers tight combat and escalating difficulty as you blast through waves of enemies.

What players say

Players say Habroxia is a straightforward 15-stage shoot-'em-up that swaps between horizontal and vertical scrolling, and it reminds many of Gradius. The persistent upgrade system requires grinding for currency, and while the challenge is fair, some find it too easy even on hard mode. The chiptune soundtrack gets repetitive quickly.
