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 brisk, nostalgic run-and-jump platformer that demands quick reflexes and precise timing across one-screen obstacle courses.

What players say

Players say this is a short, tough platformer played on a single screen, taking about two hours. They praise its well-paced difficulty and checkpoint system, but some note janky movement and say it lacks depth beyond its one-screen gimmick.
