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 pixelated 2D platformer with a cartoony, retro feel where you hack and slash through monsters in a quest that starts from a silly grievance.

What players say

Players say it is a solid but simple platformer with fluid sword mechanics. Opinions split on value: some find it monotone with a single track and predictable enemies, while others praise the fun and responsive developer.
