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 deliberate, thought-provoking platformer where time-altering organ notes accompany a somber reflection on faith and mortality through precise jumps and puzzles.

What players say

Players call it a short, well-crafted precision platformer with a focus on organ mechanics that manipulate time. They praise the music and art, and note the levels grow more complex as you progress.
