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 vibrant, fast-flowing 2D platformer with rhythmic movement and retro-inspired challenge.

What players say

Players praise the fast-paced animal-swapping gameplay and vibrant visuals, but the controls take getting used to and some find them buggy. The late game gets challenging, and a few reviewers warn of technical glitches like getting stuck in walls.
