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 chilled-out solo experience that becomes tense and competitive in local multiplayer, with gravity-defying physics and an absurd, minimalist world.

What players say

Players are split on Perfect Universe. Some appreciate the hand-drawn look and the variety of gravity-based mini-games, but many others find the controls sluggish, physics unreliable, and the default keyboard setup unchangeable. A notable number cannot even launch the game due to a crash after the logo.
