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

Giggly, sneaky, and methodical as a slimy green blob plotting ambushes in a comically violent dungeon crawl.

What players say

Players enjoy a short, clever puzzle-platformer where you cannot jump and instead crawl on walls, often upside down. Puzzles require lateral thinking and feel satisfying, though some find a handful of levels harder than others. Opinion on art style is mixed: some praise its clean look, others find the grey walls monotonous. A few note minor bugs and awkward controller support for rounded corners.
