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 colorful and hand-drawn precision platformer with a challenging, souls-like difficulty and a mysterious narrative about a missing sister.

What players say

Players find this precision platformer extremely challenging, with many praising the sense of achievement from overcoming its tough sections. However, the experience is split: some cite slippery controls and unfair design like flying instakill creatures, while others appreciate the deliberate, punishing gameplay that rewards careful play.
