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 lighthearted, action-packed platformer with quirky humor and a family-friendly adventure feel.

What players say

Players love the tight platforming, beautiful art, and catchy music, but the final boss is widely criticized as luck-based and game-ruining. Some find the formula repetitive after four entries, though the role reversal (playing as the son rescuing Dadish) is a highlight. It is short, but a few levels spike in difficulty.
