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 deliberately retro collection that feels like a playful, self-aware dive into a messy piece of platforming history.

What players say

Players agree the games are bad but call the collection well-made with extras like CRT filters and alternate versions. They split on the Bubsy 3D port, calling it unfaithful to the original. A frequent complaint is the rewind function's long interval, which turns stages into tedious rewind loops due to constant deaths.
