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 frustrating but charming precision platformer where every jump must be carefully chosen in tight spaces.

What players say

Players describe this as a challenging precision platformer focused on wall jumping, with levels that are short and often require pixel-perfect execution. The game offers a skip feature for tougher levels, and controls feel slightly sluggish to some, with no coyote frames. Fans of Celeste and Jump King will find familiar difficulty.
