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, rhythmic dodging game where shifting perspectives and pulsing music demand sharp reflexes and create a hypnotic, abstract challenge.

What players say

Players call it a worthy spiritual successor to Super Hexagon that adds new perspective shifts and inverted controls, but the view transitions can feel unfair and bugs undermine the experience. Difficulty sharply spikes, even for veterans of the original.
