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 light, floaty 2D platformer where you hop through stages with generous air time and safe ranged attacks.

What players say

Players compare it to Mega Man with a unique moveset featuring infinite jumps and an aerial stomp attack. Bosses are the highlight and get better as the game goes on, but the whole thing is very short at around 30 minutes. Players are split on controls: some praise the flexibility, while others report awkward keyboard binds and malfunctioning controller support.
