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 light but tricky 2D platformer where you carefully manage coins to level up and survive increasingly difficult levels.

What players say

Players enjoy a challenging platformer where grinding for upgrades can ease later stages, and different builds allow creative strategies. The simple retro style is compared to classic Mario games, and the low price is praised, though the early difficulty spike and final boss can be punishing.
