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 and fluid 3D action-platformer that feels hopeful and vibrant, with precise movement and a colorful, futuristic solarpunk world.

What players say

Players see a clear Mega Man X inspiration in 3D, but opinions split sharply on difficulty. Many find the precision platforming and aggressive enemy placement frustrating, while others enjoy the challenge, boss fights, and controls. Performance is rough with small bugs, and some say weapons consume too much energy to be useful.
