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 breezy, cheerful platformer that feels like a playful tropical vacation with light obstacles and gentle challenges.

What players say

Players call it a short, cute platformer that blends Crash and Banjo or Mario, best for a relaxed afternoon. Camera issues in boss fights annoy, and revisiting Summer in Mara settings charms.
