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 frantic, platforming escape where you constantly manage a draining battery while blasting through a factory with customizable abilities.

What players say

Players enjoy the battery-based health mechanic and upgrade system, but the game is very short and suffers from a bug where the dropped battery can despawn or become unreachable.
