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 tense, methodical puzzle-platformer that feels like climbing a crumbling, ancient ruin while manipulating ghostly copies of the architecture to survive.

What players say
Players praise the core photo platforming gimmick and short length, but are split on execution: many call the controls stiff, the hitboxes poor, and the levels repetitive, while the late-game challenge medals draw complaints for being un-fun.
