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 arcade platformer where tight controls and inventive obstacle courses demand perfection, making each cleared challenge a short, gratifying burst of adrenaline.

What players say

A challenging 3D platformer with physics-based jumping and collapsing platforms. Players appreciate the responsive controls and satisfying difficulty, though some find it unfair at times. The music is annoying to some, and the game gets repetitive after completion.
