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 frantic, randomly generated arcade chase where you must balance risk and reward against an ever-present wall of death.

What players say

Players describe a fast, addictive endless runner built around chasing high scores on leaderboards. The generated levels and visual flair get praise, but some find the zoomed-out view hides traps, causing frustration.
