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 arcade shooter with colorful pixel graphics and a rhythmic chiptune soundtrack that feels easy to pick up but increasingly challenging as you chase high scores.

What players say

Players describe it as a simple arcade game where you match comet colors with your shots. It is very short, around 15 minutes, and works as a relaxing time-killer, though some find it repetitive after the initial idea.
