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 challenging, fast-paced platformer that demands creative problem-solving and quick reflexes as you navigate procedurally generated death labyrinths.

What players say

Players praise the creative, fast-paced combat and atmospheric style, with many comparing it to Spelunky or Terraria. The game is seen as challenging but fair, though opinions split on polish, some find it satisfying, while others call it clunky and note it still feels unfinished with only five levels and occasional crashes.
