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 short, simple platformer where you guide a lost soul home through basic arrow-key and jump controls.

What players say

Players praise the VHS-era retro style and short length, but frustration is common. Complaints focus on no controller support, no pause menu, and progress lost when quitting. Respawns are slow and difficulty spikes quickly.
