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

An energetic retro-style platformer where you blast through levels with a foul-mouthed console sidekick.

What players say

Players praise the retro style and humor but note it is a short first episode with few enemy types. Performance problems and a poorly telegraphed boss attack frustrate some, and opinions split on whether the gameplay stays fun beyond the first few levels.
