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 straightforward third-person platformer where you guide a sad character through trap-laden levels, restarting at checkpoints after each death, to find hidden beer bottles for achievements.

What players say

A short 3D platformer where a virus collects beer bottles across 10 levels. Players say it is simple and janky but fun for the price, though falling through the map forces a restart and one-hit deaths send you back to the start.
