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 fluid, fast-paced metroidvania platformer with challenging combat, pixel art visuals, and a story-driven atmosphere of investigation and memory.

What players say

Players praise the pixel art and fluid action but warn it is not a metroidvania, it is a linear loot-driven game where equipment is replaced quickly and upgrades feel dull. Opinions split on whether its length and simplicity are refreshing or underwhelming.
