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 straightforward retro arcade platformer with cute pixel graphics where you dash across colorful levels collecting gems and freezing enemies as an ice dragon.

What players say

Players call this a loving homage to 80s arcade platformers like Bomb Jack and Bubble Bobble. The jump-and-grab mechanic is addictive, with three difficulty levels and a gentle difficulty curve that still surprises some. Many praise the cheerful pixel art and music, and the game is widely confirmed to work well on Steam Deck. A few note that on-screen elements can blend into backgrounds.
