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 charming but demanding retro metroidvania where you explore alien worlds, solve puzzles, and fight with quirky demons.

What players say
Players compare it favorably to Cave Story in art style and cast, but the lategame draws sharp complaints: precision platforming with clunky controls, rare checkpoints, and a steep difficulty spike. Those who love optional challenge rooms and exploration praise it, while others warn the narrative feels shallow and the game is hard even with health upgrades.
