It's a neat little concept, felt a bit short though.

Quick thoughts

  • I found it a little tricky to keep track of all 4 "universes" and the exact positions of platforms.
    • Perhaps consider adding "ghosts" showing where the other universe platforms are.
    • Or even reducing universe count to three or even simply two.
  • I found a couple of the levels a bit frustrating. 
    • For example the rapid fall speed made 'the dropper' seemingly impossible until I realized I could simply go around the slopes. I'm unsure if that was intended solution or if I've cheated.
  • The famicase's color scheme would have been easier on the eyes.
  • Sound effects for various things (movement, switching universe, reaching cube etc) would help improve how the game feels.
  • The character movement could use some improvement, like 'coyote time'. 
    • GMTK's Platformer Toolkit, is a great resource on how you can get platformer movement feeling good.
  • Minor thing, but the uploads filename (and internal root folder) should match the game name. I downloaded a bunch of jam entries to a folder before playing them and was confused till I saw exe name.

Thanks for some very constructive feedback!

I do agree with the thoughts on making the movement a bit more polished, and I've looked at your link for next time.

Thanks for playing!
