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 pulsating, feverish rhythm of ultra-violent combat against overwhelming odds, punctuated by a surreal, neon-drenched 80s atmosphere and a pounding soundtrack that makes every failure feel like a reset in a bad dream.

What players say
Players describe a punishing trial-and-error loop where death comes instantly and retries pile up, all set to an acclaimed synth soundtrack. Many call it short, finishing in under ten hours. Opinions split on the controls, with some finding them clunky and others accepting the challenge.
