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

An energetic, precise platformer focused on speed and route optimization through physics-based movement in a retro-styled world.

What players say

Players describe it as a speedrunning platformer that rewards mastering its movement, often comparing it to Dustforce or Neon White. Getting used to the controls takes time but feels fluid. Players appreciate the quick respawns but note some levels feel repetitive and the air control is limited.
