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 and quirky retro puzzle-platformer with a darkly humorous tone, suitable for solo or cooperative play through dynamic difficulty.

What players say

Players praise the authentic Atari-era presentation and tight controls, but are split on the difficulty: many call it rewarding, while others say boss fights rely on random chance and one-hit deaths. Co-op is widely considered the best way to play, with levels designed specifically for two players.
