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.

What players say

Players praise this free, brief rhythm game for its sweet bunny art and a heavy story about toxic family dynamics, calling it touching and relatable. A few note the music does not properly sync with the arrow-key gameplay, and there is a secret message unlocked by opening the game again after finishing.
