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 notoriously rough unlicensed Sonic bootleg from Makon Soft with lo-fi charm and questionable quality.

About

Sonic 3D Blast 5 is a platform game developed by Makon Soft for Nintendo's Game Boy. The exact release date is unknown. However, it's believed to have been released at some point after 1997, due to it having remixes of music from the Sonic & Knuckles Collection for PC/from the Sonic 3 prototype. The gameplay is very similar to Makon Soft's other platformers, using an almost identical engine to those games. However, it has since gained notoriety for its poor quality.
