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, unforgiving climb where every pixel-perfect jump feels like a cruel joke, testing your patience and resolve with each incremental failure.

What players say

Players call it a rage-inducing but addictive precision platformer that feels similar to Jump King and OnlyUp. They praise the atmosphere and say controls are tighter than Jump King, though some wish for a jump charge indicator or save function.
