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 bleak, trial-and-error side-scroller where each death resets progress but preserves knowledge, creating a tense, lonely trek through a threatening lab.

What players say

Players split on this one-person project: many respect the developer's years of dedication and the low price, but find the game poorly designed with an uneven difficulty, clunky combat, and too much filler. The story and music are highlights, but the execution frustrates even patient players.
