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 gentle, logic-driven puzzle-platformer where you pause and rewind time to rearrange the world, solving relaxed spatial challenges at your own pace.

What players say

Players describe this as a short puzzle-platformer where time-reversing mechanics create brain-bending puzzles reminiscent of Portal, Braid, and Baba is You. The platforming is just okay, but the clever powers and rewarding solutions make up for it, though even solved puzzles require many retries.
