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 small, casual platformer with simple puzzles and exploration, best suited for brief play sessions.

What players say

Players finish this tiny metroidvania in under an hour, often in 13 to 30 minutes. They appreciate the map design and upgrades like ricochet, but note the game is extremely brief and some call it a fair $1 donation rather than a full purchase.
