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 measured, puzzle-focused experience where you manipulate an egg through clever environmental stages, each with a distinct mechanical twist.

What players say

Players say the egg rolls too slowly and cannot jump, leaving puzzles feeling tedious rather than engaging. Camera and keyboard controls frustrate many, and the lack of a pause menu or autosave compounds the issue. Some find the game a decent proof of concept for its price, but most agree it feels like an unfinished student project.
