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 straightforward run-and-gun platformer with retro pixel visuals and a classic rescue-the-princess arcade feel.

What players say

Players are split. Some say it is a basic action platformer for its price, but others call it a reskinned GameMaker Studio template from a developer who re-releases the same few games with minor changes. A few note a floaty jump mechanic that slows movement in the air.
