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 calm, contemplative search for answers as a friendly robot exploring a strange planet with clever gravity-puzzles and a subtle dark-humour undercurrent.

What players say

Players agree the gravity-manipulating mechanic is a neat idea, but they are split on the execution. Many say controls feel sluggish for the precision required, the jump is too short, save points are sparse and the difficulty spikes sharply near the end, though some find it a relaxing short experience.
