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 neon-drenched, rhythm-driven platformer that feels like surfing on air to a pumping beat while scaling vibrant, pulsating environments.

What players say

Players praise the tight controls and level design that encourages flow rather than pixel-perfect precision. The soundtrack by Chipzel and neon visuals create a hypnotic atmosphere. Some find it too difficult or repetitive.
