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 brain-teasing puzzle-platformer where you rewind to your saved position, carrying momentum as you rotate the environment, creating a personal and thoughtful challenge.

What players say

Players praise the creative momentum-driven gameplay and compare it favorably to Celeste. The challenge is tough but rewarding, though some find later levels buggy and luck-based. The game rewards speedrunners and has a catchy soundtrack.
