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 deceptively cute pixel-art platformer that demands intense split-screen multitasking and quick reflexes while navigating deadly traps.

What players say

Players say Quadroids demands intense multitasking across four screens, each controlled by a single button. It is compared to Zachtronics meets Super Meat Boy, and players split on whether the challenge is rewarding or too punishing. The 130 levels introduce new mechanics per chapter, and chasing leaderboard times adds replay value.
