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 light-hearted, hand-drawn platformer that feels like playing through a whimsical story sketched on graph paper, with gentle puzzles and a cozy adventure tone.

What players say

Players praise the hand-drawn art style and Christmas story, but say the gameplay is frustrating with janky controls and a notoriously unfair boss fight. The game is very short, around 15 minutes to an hour, and some note it is filled with meme references and grammatical mistakes, while long-time players report the developer is unresponsive to bugs.
