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 classic platformer where you navigate tricky hazards and use a variety of weapons to fight enemies and explore large levels.

What players say

Players say the port is broken, with crashes that block progress at the final boss and poor performance on modern hardware. Despite a nostalgic art style, the game is full of instant-death traps and technical issues that require fan patches to even run.
