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 frantic, physics-driven ball-rolling platformer that demands speed and precision through increasingly hazardous worlds, with a playful, arcade-infused sense of humor.

What players say

Players compare it to marble games like Marble Blast Ultra, calling it a janky but fun throwback. Many note difficulty spikes in worlds 2, 5, and 6 where jump inputs get eaten and levels feel broken. Performance is a problem for some, though a resolution fix helps. Players appreciate the creativity and shortcuts, and several went back to play more after reviewing.
