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 precise and punishing puzzle platformer where mastering trajectory and movement is the only path through each tense, minimalist arena.

What players say

Players describe this as a hard precision-based platformer that rewards persistence. The triangular character adds depth, and the sound design and animations give the game a satisfying weight. Reviews consistently call it extremely challenging, especially at higher levels, but note the level progression keeps frustration manageable.
