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 slick black-and-white Metroidvania that feels like fluid exploration and combat in a monochrome world.

What players say
Players describe it as a short, beginner-friendly metroidvania heavily inspired by Animal Well, with a black-and-white art style. Many note the inability to rebind keys, repetitive boss patterns, and about 2 hours to 100% it.
