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.

A deliberately broken, trolling Sonic ROM hack designed to be as chaotic, nonsensical, and ear-splitting as possible.

About

Crat Strat's Sonic 1 Hack is a ROM hack of the original Sonic the Hedgehog for the Sega Genesis, the hack is a technical "troll" designed to be as bizarre and nonsensical as possible. It features a completely broken and chaotic presentation where levels are filled with random, non-functional objects, ear-piercingly distorted music, and a "Crat Strat" character that is a poorly drawn, jittery version of Sonic.
