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
It feels like a pick-up-and-play retro action platformer where you learn through pure gameplay and nonlinear exploration.

What players say
Players describe it as an NES-hard platformer in the style of Mega Man with a bullet hell twist. The difficulty is divisive: some find the stage design unfair with instant death traps and cascading enemies, while others say easy mode is manageable. Controls and retro art are praised, but knockback and infrequent checkpoints frustrate many.
