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 large Mario World hack with 10 worlds, 65+ levels, custom graphics, and revamped boss fights including a new final boss.

About

A full hack, with 10 worlds, somewhere around 65 levels, and 87 exits. Has a lot of custom graphics, though isn't exactly full of them. Not the best hack ever, by any margin, but I spent a very long time working on it, so I hope you enjoy it. Among its more original features are a new bonus game and several new or tweaked boss fights, with a new final boss, as well.
