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 lighthearted but challenging low-poly platformer with a colorful aesthetic and serene guardian theme.

What players say

Players praise the soothing soundtrack and simple controls, but nearly all reviews agree the limited camera makes it impossible to see where you land, leading to repeated cheap deaths. The lack of checkpoints on long levels frustrates even fans of the genre.
