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 scrappy, arcade-style brawler with old-timey visuals and darkly comedic punchlines, where you stomp through streets as a washed-up boxer desperately chasing the thief who stole your dog.

What players say

A free, short beat-em-up using vintage photographs as art, which gives it a distinctive Monty Python-like look. Players call it funny and charming, but note that unlocking all achievements requires many playthroughs.
