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 pensive 2D side-scroller where you navigate a desolate broken world, surviving mechanical threats while journeying through personal introspection and relationships.

What players say

Players praise the art style and music but report broken physics, imprecise controls, and persistent bugs that crash the game. The dialogue and humor split opinions, and movement feels sluggish for a platformer.
