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 raw, unfinished puzzle-platformer that feels like a bare-bones skill test with blocky movement and color-switching gimmicks.

What players say

Players are split on this free platformer: some find its minimalist design and color-switching puzzles engaging, but many more are frustrated by a terrible tutorial, broken hitboxes, and a progression system that gates the entire game behind completing it.
