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 deliberately tough, old-school platformer where you die repeatedly in short, tense bursts as you try to clear every pixel of fog from a sci-fi temple.

What players say

Players agree it is a very short, single-screen precision platformer that can be 100% completed in under two hours. The four characters change the mechanics and offer replay value, though opinions split on whether the controls feel tight or slippery. Some find the checkpoint placement iffy and the instant respawn frustrating.
