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 yet challenging 2D platformer where you can blast or sprint past monsters with a retro pixel look.

What players say

Players say this is a comically bad platformer with repetitive level design, reused assets, and enemies that can shoot through walls. Many bought it for easy achievements while on steep discount, but few found it worth even that price.
