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 fast-paced, aerial action-adventure where you fluidly grapple and boomerang through pirate battles with upgradeable powers.

What players say

Players praise the boomerang-focused combat with kick and dash mechanics that reward strategy. The game is a short but enjoyable hack-and-slash with a nostalgic old-school charm and a funny story, though some find it lacking replayability and note minor bugs.
