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 stripped-down, black-and-white pixel art platformer where the focus is on precise movement and learning increasingly tough boss patterns.

What players say

Players find it very challenging, often comparing it to Cuphead in difficulty. Some say the difficulty feels artificial rather than natural. Opinions split on the soundtrack, which some call good and others cringe. A few reviewers mention the need for an autoclicker or note the second boss has no clear instructions.
