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 fast-paced, retro arcade-style score chaser with simple controls, colorful pixel graphics, and a lighthearted comedic tone.

What players say

Players call it a short, difficult arcade homage to Superman, comparing it to Flappy Bird on NES. The challenge is steep but the novelty fades, once you learn the patterns, it becomes repetitive. Players split on how long the fun lasts.
