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 nostalgic collection of short, offbeat arcade and puzzle platformers with a cheeky sense of humor and a new connecting story.

What players say

Players say the collection is a nostalgic time capsule with interesting developer commentary, but performance is poor and stuttering is common. Some report progress not saving and a broken level, while others enjoy the creativity despite the jank.
