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 tense and precise physics-based platformer where you awkwardly control a demon barrel, with each jump and launch demanding careful timing.

What players say

Players say it is a brutally challenging precision platformer where falls send you far back, but the short length and low price make repeated attempts tolerable. The physics take some getting used to, and many compare it to Getting Over It.
