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

Tiny Thor feels like a tight, fast-paced retro platformer where you expertly ricochet a hammer through pixel-art obstacle courses.

What players say

Players praise Tiny Thor for its tight controls, beautiful 8-bit pixel art, and excellent soundtrack, but warn that the difficulty spikes sharply in later sections. The story is a simple premise about Thor saving the world from Ragnarök, though it takes a backseat to the fast and creative precision platforming.
