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

You move through eerie, beautiful landscapes by nudging the world around you, solving platforming puzzles in a quiet, atmospheric journey.

What players say

Players praise the original concept of controlling the ground to move a ball, but disagree on whether the controls feel intuitive or frustrating. The game is very short and free, with a calm soundtrack that some find mismatched with the tricky later levels.
