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 whimsical but punishing Metroidvania where you clumsily explore a hostile magic school, solving fetch quests with pixel-perfect platforming.

What players say

Players praise the charming pixel art and witty writing, but opinions split on the puzzles: some find them clever, others obtuse enough to require a guide. The game is short at around 4 hours, with floaty platforming and a steep difficulty spike on the spider boss that frustrated some.
