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 small cute cube jumps through tight pixelated obstacles, balancing moments of tense precision with a calm and simple feel.

What players say

Players describe a minimalist platformer that is simple but prone to bugs, with a slow pace and no music. The game is abandoned and has a glitch on level 42 that blocks completion. Controls are limited to left and right movement, with springs for jumping, and collision detection is imprecise.
