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 lighthearted, slightly silly 2D platformer where solving puzzles and bashing monsters with your own head feels like a goofy adventure.

What players say

Players enjoy the core mechanics like removing your head to solve puzzles and using a grappling hook, but many note the game is very short at under an hour and has no story. Some find the controls slightly stiff and the elements too basic, while others appreciate it as a casual, low-stakes platformer.
