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 methodical and precarious climb through eerie, hidden depths, where each jump and puzzle demands careful timing and observation.

What players say

Players find it a short precision platformer with tight controls and a satisfying challenge, though some are frustrated by the demand for exact timing. The dark yet calm atmosphere, fluid animations, and piano soundtrack are widely praised. Comparisons to Celeste and Limbo come up often.
