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 straightforward 2D action-adventure platformer with a dramatic premise and adjustable difficulty.

What players say

Players say the game nails a flashy pixel-art look and smooth movement, but instant-death traps with far-apart saves make progression feel unfair rather than fun. Many cannot rebind keys and complain about muddy hit feedback and loud audio. Reviews are split on whether the generous iframe dash compensates for the punishing level design, and some feel development stalled.
