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 blistering precision platformer where chaining rocket jumps, dashes, and bunny hops into a relentless flow state is the only way to beat the developer's ghost times.

What players say

Players praise the unique transformation between a person and a fighter jet, combined with rocket boosts and grappling for speedrunning. The game is hard but fair, though some complain about a broken UI and leaderboard bugs, and several note the lack of a proper tutorial.
