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 stripped-down, demanding platformer that tests raw skill and persistence with no handholding.

What players say
Players describe a 2D platformer with a unique twist: you cannot jump, only bounce off walls by controlling your falling speed. It is very hard, with long checkpoint gaps and trial-and-error design that leads to frustration. Players split on whether the difficulty is well-crafted or just punishing for its own sake.
