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 relentless, minimalistic precision platformer where you constantly flip colors through obstacles at high speed against a driving electronic soundtrack.

What players say

Players praise its tight controls and satisfying speed, but nearly everyone warns about a brutal difficulty spike in the mercury chapter that even devoted fans find excessive.
