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 fast-paced retro action platformer where you blast through robot hordes with upgradable weapons while uncovering a story about a sentient drone.

What players say

Players are split on this retro platformer. Many praise the amount of content, but reviews consistently criticize the dash ability and moving platforms that do not carry the character, leading to frustrating deaths. The difficulty is called cheap, especially during the later levels and the Spider Guardian section.
