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 fast and challenging retro run-and-gun platformer with cute visuals, tight controls, and a whimsical yet absurd tone.

What players say

Players praise the dark humor and bright visuals, and note that gameplay shifts between levels with story consequences. A few report lingering audio and visual bugs, and one reviewer wishes the grappling hook had more momentum.
