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 dizzying, quick-reflex slide through a twisting tube of neon obstacles.

What players say

A free endless runner where players slide a ball down a spiral tower, dodging red segments. Some call it a relaxing time killer, while others find it lacking compared to Super Hexagon. The controls feel counterintuitive, and the difficulty ramps up quickly. Players are split on whether the simplicity works or gets old.
