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 gentle, nostalgic platforming adventure through colorful 2D worlds with light puzzles and coin collecting.

What players say

Players call it a budget homage to 80s platformers like Rick Dangerous. It captures the retro feel with traps and hidden items, but frustrates with no mid-level checkpoints, short length, and occasional softlocks. Reviews disagree on polish.
