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 bouncy, colorful precision platformer where you roll, jump, and dash through handcrafted levels as a customizable sphere.

What players say

Players praise its addictive variety and challenge, but split on controls and bugs: some call them responsive, others clunky or janky. The developer delisted the game in 2024 due to Canada's new licensing fees, leaving only a few dozen copies sold.
