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 precise, fast-paced platformer where you evaluate situations in slow motion before striking, with a colorful yet post-apocalyptic atmosphere and lore-rich exploration.

What players say

Players describe it as a solid precision platformer that borrows heavily from Celeste and Hollow Knight, with tight movement and a slow-motion dash mechanic. The story and pixel art are praised, but some find the later levels repetitive and the game on the easy side for the genre.
