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-paced, tight arcade shoot'em up that ramps up in difficulty as your skill improves.

What players say

Players love the weapon variety and the unique mechanic where some weapons shoot behind your ship. The soundtrack by Chris Huelsbeck and the gothic art style get constant praise. Difficulty is high but players say dying feels forgiving, and the game has a strong "one more run" pull.
