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 punishing old-school pixelart action game that demands hours of skill and persistence to navigate dangerous towers.

What players say
Players see Slingshot Explorer as a brutally difficult retro platformer with a charge-shot mechanic. The coin placement is random, forcing constant climbing. Reviews split on whether the difficulty is a fair challenge or a punishing flaw.
