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 brisk, anime-styled 2D platformer where you learn new attacks from bosses and navigate straightforward levels with a fair difficulty curve.

What players say

Players see this as a solid remake of the 3DS cult classic, with better controls, new animations, and a difficulty system that rewards replay. Opinions split on the new graphics, which some find worse than the original pixel art. The second playable character is widely called weak, and a few levels have frustrating instant-death sections.
