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 melancholic yet hopeful dimensional-shifting puzzle-platformer where you explore a shadowy purgatory to reunite with a lost love.

What players say

Players praise the art and music but criticize the long checkpoints, unresponsive controls, and trial-and-death puzzles. The story is called predictable and the game is very short, often finished in around three hours. Some players find the chase scenes and platforming frustrating.
