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 lighthearted, physics-driven puzzle-platformer where you swing through colorful 2D levels with gentle timing and precision.

What players say

Players praise the original momentum-based swinging mechanic, but warn the game is surprisingly hard despite its cute graphics. The bungee physics and level skip tokens are highlights, though some find the repetition and timer levels frustrating.
