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, trippy arcade score-chaser where disorienting visual effects and frantic play create a weirdly fun, chaotic feel.

What players say

Players compare Happy Pong to a psychedelic Arkanoid where visual effects can make the game almost unplayable. Opinion splits between those who love the crazy visuals and challenging difficulty, and those who find the core gameplay boring and the interface confusing.
