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 thoughtful, momentum-based platformer where you carefully trigger actions and watch the drone react to the environment, emphasizing timed precision over speed.

What players say

Players praise its indirect controls and gravity-flip mechanic, noting that short 2-minute levels make it ideal for quick sessions. The energy system, shared between jump and boost, frustrates some but is seen as an intentional challenge.
