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 punishing, darkly comedic precision platformer with pixel graphics and a grim fantasy atmosphere.

What players say

Players are sharply divided. Some enjoy the punishing challenge and mechanical focus, while many more call it a generic, aggravating platformer with no identity. Complaints target bland boss fights, a lack of story or ending, and a save-corrupting bug late in the game.
