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 tense and precise precision platformer where careful planning and composure are needed to ascend through spike-filled levels, with a cute but punishing visual style.

What players say

Players praise the simple rocket-jump mechanic but warn of brutal difficulty with no checkpoints, where one mistake sends you back to the start.
