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, arcade-style shooter set in a quirky dystopian alternate history where you fly virtual combat missions against Nazi forces.

What players say

Players are split on this VR arcade shooter. Some enjoy the retro top-down action and upgrade loop, calling it fun in short bursts. Others say the controls are too sensitive, stages and bosses repeat, and the VR adds little to the experience.
