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

You control a ball that endlessly accelerates, demanding pinpoint precision in a high-stakes platformer where one mistake sends you plummeting.

What players say

Players nostalgic for Bounce Ball enjoy the 3D remake, but many report corner collision bugs that cause the ball to bounce off edges and fall. The difficulty spikes sharply in hidden stages and some boss maps are confusing, while others find the challenge rewarding for its price. A running joke asks the developer for their address, implying both frustration and affection.
