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.

What players say

Players call it a short, basic 2D platformer with 40 levels that can be finished in under two hours. Some mention bugs and glitches, like getting stuck on trees or needing to restart a level, but also say the music is great and the game is fun for a quick session.
