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
Controlling a single flying sword through quiet, pixelated dungeons, you solve puzzles with thoughtful clicks and a slimy companion.

What players say
Players praise the short run time of about one hour, the unique slime-tethering controls, and the catchy soundtrack. The writing gets laughs, and boss battles are a highlight, though the slime's acceleration and tether range can frustrate.
