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 short, charming retro action platformer where you play as a cute robot exploring vibrant 2.5D worlds, collecting upgrades and fighting the computer's OS.

What players say

Players describe Lost Bits as a short, polished 2D platformer with a charming aesthetic and a catchy soundtrack. It takes about an hour to finish, with fair difficulty and simple controls that feel responsive. Some players mix up combat with melee and guns, though a few find the gun underwhelming.
