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 fast and punishing arcade platformer where you frantically jump and slide to dodge a relentless stream of enemies and obstacles.

What players say

Players call it a challenging 2D platformer in the vein of Flappy Bird, with simple but polished mechanics and a catchy pixel art style. Reviews are split on whether the difficulty is fair or overdone, and several note the game has very few levels.
