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 gentle, introspective platformer that uses light puzzles and exploration to convey a serious message about mental health.

What players say

Players praise the clever phase-switching puzzles and minimalist art, while noting the slow movement and a late difficulty spike. Many connect deeply with its portrayal of bipolar disorder, finding it emotional and meaningful. Some find the puzzles needlessly frustrating with no reward.
