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 frantic, punishingly precise 2D platformer with a colorful, absurdly humorous tone.

What players say

Players call this a hardcore 2D platformer similar to Super Meat Boy with physics-based gimmicks. They praise the soundtrack and level variety but note the character cannot stick to walls, making wall jumps awkward, and some report achievements not unlocking.
