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

Moving carefully through ancient pixel-art ruins, you jump over traps and spike pits in a tense, exploratory platformer.

What players say

A precision platformer with 50 levels that can be beaten in 2-3 hours. Players praise the level design but warn about cheap death traps and trial-and-error sections, with a light switching mechanic that is mostly used at night.
