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.

You zip through tight levels against the clock, chasing your best time with crisp pixel controls and clear feedback.

What players say

Players enjoy quick speedrun sessions and chasing times, but note unresponsive jumps, tricky inertia, and an accidental reset button that needs customization. Several say the free web version has more content, making the paid game feel weaker.
