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.

About

Marsupilami is a character created by Belgian cartoonist "Franquin". Marsupilami is a long tailed made-up character who was stolen from the jungle and performs in a circus. After helping the other animals escape, Marsupilami must make his way back to the country he came from - Palombia. The aim is to guide his Elephant companion, Bonelli, through the levels, passed obstacles and traps. As he progresses, he gains more abilities by collecting power ups. Each level is timed so each action must be thought about carefully.
