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 retro pixel-art platformer with precise jumping and challenging puzzles, set to ambient music and a cute but tough arcade feel.

What players say

Players call it a very short precision platformer with responsive jump and hover controls, but note problems: no volume settings, no achievements, and no controller support. Many see it as a decent first game from the developer.
