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 fast-paced roller-skating adventure where you zip through a colorful city, take on odd jobs, and befriend quirky characters between races and fights.

What players say

Players love the colorful aesthetic, music and skating feel, but many report finicky controls and a steep difficulty spike early on. The camera and lack of optimization cause frustration, and there is disagreement over the addition of AI-generated art and the shift from sandbox to guided story. The game remains in early access with an unfinished campaign.
