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, cinematic 3D side-scrolling runner where you constantly move forward, dodge obstacles, and perform parkour moves to a pulsing soundtrack.

What players say

Players praise the hip-hop soundtrack and striking neon visuals, but many find the gameplay too easy, even on hard, and the 12-level campaign too short. Some report camera and obstacle collision problems, while others compare it unfavorably to mobile runners or Bit.Trip Runner.
