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 chaotic 2D pixel art shooter with precise platforming and a comic-book feel, set in a strange post-apocalyptic world.

What players say

Players call it a challenging 2D platformer inspired by Super Meat Boy, with smooth controls and creative pixel art. The difficulty ramps up gradually, with some levels requiring many tries but never feeling impossible. A few reviews note the checkpoints can be punishing, similar to Ghosts 'n Goblins.
