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

It feels like a high-speed, stunt-filled arcade racer where you must master tricky physics and learn each track to compete for top leaderboard positions.

What players say

Players compare this physics-based stunt racer to Trackmania, Rocket League, and SSX Tricky. The trick system and grinding mechanic are praised, though some find the car handling unpolished in early access.
