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 simple, precise platformer where you carefully guide a ball through obstacle courses with limited lives and the ability to edit levels in a text file.

What players say

Players call the controls baffling and hard, with input delay and the ball drifting after release. Fun early on, but a few say it becomes unbearable after level 15.
