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

You play as cute animal friends with quirky abilities, exploring a colorful, pixelated world at your own pace.

What players say

Players describe this as a short, chill metroidvania with relaxing music and a novel character-switching mechanic. Most find the main path easy, but opinions split on the controls: some call them fluid while others report jank, especially after unlocking the frog. Boss fights have drawn criticism for poor telegraphing and bugs, though updates have tried to address them.
