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 straightforward arcade-style platformer where you roll through levels collecting items as the challenge ramps up.

What players say

Players say the ball controls are tricky, which makes collecting items tedious and the game rage-inducing. It offers a good challenge with well-designed levels and about 10 hours of content, and has improved through updates.
