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 lighthearted, strategic puzzle game where you guide a pufferfish through levels with calm, physics-based gameplay.

What players say

Players are split on Ping Pong Pufferfish: some find it a relaxing way to kill time, while others say the physics jank makes it frustrating. The game tasks you with shooting a cannon ball into a bottle over 70 levels that grow harder, and there is no penalty for failing.
