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, precise run-and-gun platformer with retro pixel visuals and a punishing learning curve.

What players say

Players are split, with some calling it one of the worst platformers and others finding it fun. Complaints center on slippery ice-like controls, glitchy enemies, and a terrible boss battle, praise goes to the music and silly charm.
