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 deceptively simple 2D physics platformer that feels tight and responsive when mastered, but can be punishing and frustrating when learning its varied mechanics.

What players say

Players praise the simple two-button controls and physics-based gameplay that is easy to learn but hard to master, with a high skill ceiling and satisfying speedrun potential. The game includes a level editor and Steam Workshop support for extra content, though opinions split on the best control method, mouse is generally preferred over keyboard or controller.
