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-paced precision platformer where you turn a mailman's terrible allergies into zany superpowers to collect lost letters.

What players say

Players praise Hayfever as a polished precision platformer with a clever sneeze-dash mechanic that refreshes on pollen. It is compared favorably to Celeste and Super Meat Boy. Some find it too difficult, with lucky-feeling sections, and a few note missing cloud saves and level repetitiveness in the hard mode.
