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, high-speed 2D shoot 'em up where you dodge bullet storms, weave gravity wells, and stack strange loot to survive increasingly fierce waves of enemies.

What players say

Players consistently compare Hyperspace Dogfights to Luftrausers and Risk of Rain, calling it a roguelite take on arcade plane combat. With over a hundred hours common, they praise the unlocks and weapon variety, while noting the controls take getting used to and some struggle with the ship's feel.
