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 quirky 2D platformer where you control a jumping frog ax master who attacks by hopping, but must navigate sea terrain while avoiding seawater.

What players say

Players describe a brutally difficult climbing game where any touch of water is instant death and even the starting swing can kill you. They repeatedly note the lack of checkpoints forces full restarts, and the bubble disappearance timer feels unfairly random. The cute art and pop music are praised, but most agree it is not for everyone.
