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 surprisingly challenging, bouncy platformer where a cute slime's increasingly tricky jumps deliver a satisfying sense of achievement.

What players say

Players describe it as a cute but brutally hard instant-death action game. You swipe a slime to bounce past obstacles, and any touch kills it. A brief hover move helps early, but later stages add fast bees from off-screen. The simple visuals and music are praised, while the lack of a quit button on the title screen is a minor complaint.
