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 tense and punishing precision platformer where every jump on a pogo stick is a high-stakes gamble in a strange, gravity-defying world.

What players say

Players describe Jumping Jack as a free, solid-but-basic pogo-stick platformer that is unforgiving because it has no checkpoints or saves. While some find the difficulty fair after practice, many complain about edge glitches and a bug where a platform stays lowered after respawning.
