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 relaxed top-down shooter where you freely fly through a borderless map, gathering resources and endlessly upgrading your mecha's weapons and frame.

What players say
Players call it a satisfying arcade shooter that is fun for a few hours but gets repetitive quickly after unlocking powerful upgrades. Many report optimization problems, especially on Steam Deck where performance is poor, though the low price makes it feel worth the short playtime.
