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 cheerful, exploration-focused 2D platformer with a gentle difficulty curve and a playful, whimsical atmosphere reminiscent of classic 90s games.

What players say

A retro 2D platformer with NES-era spirit and a built-in level editor. Players are split on the lives system, which can send you back to the start of a level after a game over, though the developer added an option to turn it off. Bosses are described as tough, and the game is praised as a lot of content for a low price.
