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 tense, precision-driven 2D platformer with a dark, surreal atmosphere and Lovecraftian horror elements.

What players say

Players are drawn to the distinctive Giger-like black-and-white art, but many find the gameplay rough, with stiff controls, unfair enemy damage, and trial-and-error sections. The game is very short, around one to two hours, and opinions split on whether the atmosphere makes up for the janky combat and weak platforming.
