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 gentle, frictionless puzzle game where you glide a plane through serene, stylized clouds, guided by calm music and hand-crafted levels.

What players say

Players describe Jetstream as a calm, minimalist puzzle game where you guide a paper plane that cannot stop until it hits something. Many find the early levels simple, but sentiment is split on the later ones: some call them frustratingly trial-and-error, especially the last chapter's sudden difficulty jump, while others enjoy the added challenge.
