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 speedy, retro-styled mini Metroidvania where you sneak and fight through robot-filled maps as a homeless character, focused on replaying to beat your own time.

What players say

Players are split on this game: some enjoy its quirky retro throwback style, but many others find broken hitboxes, frustrating navigation, and poor level design prevent them from recommending it.
