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 control a sentient sludge climbing through a gorgeously pixelated underground dump in a tough, precision platformer that rewards fast retries and tight wall-clinging mechanics.

What players say
Players are split: some enjoy the challenge and checkpoint placement, while many criticize the short camera view that forces blind jumps and memorization over skill, calling it artificial difficulty. It is a free, hardcore 2D platformer that can be rage-inducing.
