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

You control a frog riding a cart, repeatedly jumping upward in a serene 3D world, aiming to reach a symbolic peak while gently confronting your own sense of limits.

What players say

Players are split on this frog platformer. Many find the controls clunky and the checkpoint physics frustrating, but others embrace the difficulty for a memorable struggle.
