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 frantic arcade space shooter where you build and customize a hexagonal warship to conquer the galaxy through overwhelming firepower.

What players say

Players praise the addictive ship-building combat and the urge for one more sector, but a broken save system has gone unfixed for over a year, making it impossible to continue a campaign. Opinions split on the campaign's clarity and visual clutter, with some loving the module-based tinkering and others frustrated by late-game one-shot kills.
