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 blistering, precision-focused platformer where you rocket-boost through stylized clouds with punishing but rewarding movement, driven by your own skill.

What players say

Players praise the fast-paced parkour and momentum-based controls, saying movement feels great and the level editor adds infinite replayability. Many find the late-game combat sections frustrating and some say the learning curve is steep, especially on the hardest DLC levels.
