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 minimalist 2D platformer with a gentle, eerie feel as you fluidly control a liquid cat exploring a mysterious world.

What players say
Players consistently praise this platformer for its emotional story about grief and its simple, fun mechanics, while noting that getting all achievements is very time-consuming.
