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-paced pixel-art adventure where you dash through islands, hack enemies with a cutlass, and scramble to escape before the sea claims you.

What players say

Players praise this as a solid, cheap platformer with retro pixel art and tight controls. Exploration centers on finding a hidden key in each stage. The difficulty is a point of debate: some call it fair and fun, others say parts like lava stages and disappearing platforms feel like cheap deaths. There is no story and no tutorial for new abilities like the boat.
