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 clumsy janitor bumbles through a slapstick platforming adventure with gentle stakes and cartoonish mishaps.

What players say

Players call this a short, lighthearted 2D platformer that is best for young children. They praise the colorful visuals and humor but note the controls feel slippery and the same music loop gets old fast. Collecting biomass awards only points, and upgrades are so cheap they become pointless halfway through the game.
