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, humorous precision platformer where you control a fast, agile slug alongside a wizard in a charming, colorful fantasy world.

What players say
Players praise the writing and humor as the standout, with a story that balances silliness and heart. The core mechanic lets the slug shrink when using abilities or taking hits, adding strategy. Platforming is not too hard but has tricky later sections. Performance bugs are mentioned by a couple of reviewers.
