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 fast-paced, precision platformer with a cute aesthetic where flying and wall-jumping feel fluid and empowering, but the difficulty ramps up steadily.

What players say

Players praise the unique broom-flying mechanic and the cute art, but they consistently warn that the game is much harder than its looks suggest. A steep difficulty spike after the demo section leaves some feeling underprepared, and many note the short length combined with its abrupt ending.
