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 puzzle-action game where your character's size and jump change as you adjust the camera view to reveal blocks and navigate stages.

What players say

Players describe a short 2D action-puzzle game where you move a viewfinder frame to create or remove platforms. The 30 stages are considered easy and quick to finish, with one player noting the game feels more like a contest with the designer than freeform play. Some mention the language is only Japanese and Xbox controllers need Steam input forced off.
