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, fast-paced pixel-art platformer where every second counts as you scramble to collect items and survive randomly generated levels.

What players say

Players criticize the jump as sluggish and unresponsive, with one noting the game fails to register jumps on high-refresh monitors. Many say the difficulty comes from poor design and bad physics rather than fun challenge. A few mention it is only worth it for Steam trading cards.
