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 bright neon retro platformer where you dash through cyberspace destroying everything in your path as levels grow harder.

What players say

Players say the game is a short old-school platformer that relies on trial and error due to a narrow field of view, making the casual difficulty with infinite lives strongly recommended. Controls can feel mash-heavy, though some players remap autofire to ease that.
