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 bouncy, cartoon-styled time-travel puzzle platformer where you casually coordinate with past selves to solve puzzles and meet quirky quotas.

What players say

Players love this puzzle game's time-travel clone mechanic, calling it a fun mix of Portal and The Misadventures of PB Winterbottom. They praise the charming art and music, but warn the difficulty ramps up quickly as levels demand precise timing to optimize.
