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 frantic first-person platformer with darkly comedic office hell, where you sprint through surreal demonic workplaces using a stapler to escape.

What players say

Players are split on the controls: some find the movement janky and unpredictable, while others praise its smoothness and high skill ceiling. Disorienting obstacles in later stages frustrate some, but many enjoy the puzzle-like levels, rocket jumping, and satisfying replayability for diamond medals.
