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 challenging 16-bit action platformer with real-time character switching that demands precise timing and mastery of two distinct combat styles.

What players say

Players praise the pixel art and character-swapping mechanic, but many find the controls frustrating because one character cannot jump and the other cannot dash. The game is more of a puzzle platformer than a Metroidvania, with some calling it slow-paced and boring while others find it addictive and challenging. A common complaint is the lack of control remapping.
