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 minimalist puzzle game where you control two characters on split screens, gradually increasing in difficulty while staying calm and colorful.

What players say

Players praise the core mechanic of controlling two squares simultaneously across 90 levels that introduce new elements in batches. The difficulty is described as balanced, challenging enough to feel clever but rarely frustrating, though one player found it harder than others claimed. A few report crashes, and the level editor DLC is called broken and unfinished.
