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 top-down action game where you fight to survive in a shrinking arena while mining to expand your space.

What players say

Players say the game is broken on release, with controls that don't work and frequent crashes. Performance tanks at higher levels due to visual effects. Gameplay becomes repetitive quickly, with few mechs and little build variety. Co-op lobbies are empty.
