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 colorful, physics-driven puzzle platformer with a particle aesthetic that feels meditative and experimental.

What players say

Players praise the soothing atmosphere and clever use of sound to solve puzzles, but agree it is very short. Some find certain jumps frustrating after repeated attempts, and a controller is recommended to avoid keyboard clunkiness.
