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 hypnotic, rhythm-driven puzzle-platformer that pulls you into a pulsing, colorful geometric world where every move must match the beat of an electronic soundtrack.

What players say

Players say this is a tight rhythm-puzzle game where you move to the beat through abstract geometric levels. The soundtrack and visuals get plenty of praise, though some find the isometric perspective tricky and a few musicians note the beat timing feels slightly off. Community levels add replay value, and using wired headphones is recommended to avoid audio lag.
