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 lighthearted, holiday-themed side-scrolling platformer with cheerful visuals and cooperative multiplayer, where you run and jump through festive levels to save Christmas.

What players say

Players say this is a faithful Super Mario clone with a Christmas skin and tight controls, but some find its difficulty punishing and the lack of saving progress frustrating. The game is very short, though later updates through 2025 added more worlds. Opinions split on whether the controls feel exactly like Mario or slightly off.
