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 breezy, pixel-art action platformer with a playful tone, fast travel, and lighthearted humor.

What players say

Players praise the NES-style graphics and armor-switching mechanic, but opinions split on difficulty: some find it fair and methodical, others call it punishing with no invincibility frames, heavy knockback, and sparse checkpoints. Bosses are often considered too simple despite tough levels.
