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 meditative arcade rhythm game where you press four keys to catch shapes, balancing between calm exploration and tense survival as the music responds to your actions.

What players say

Players describe inSynch as a short rhythm game with a distinctive stop-motion look that requires precise timing across four lanes. Opinions split: some find the visuals and offbeat animation confusing, while others call the flow meditative and addictive. Most finish all levels in under an hour.
