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 calming yet slightly quirky 2D platformer where you flip the world using only the keyboard.

What players say

Players praise the screen-rotation mechanic for making platforming feel fresh, but many note the current early access build is very short, around an hour. Several wish later levels would combine mechanics from different chapters rather than introducing them in isolation.
