How does your game fit the theme?
The thought experiment Schrödinger's cat depicts a situation in quantum physics where particles can be in a superposition of all possible states at once until they are observed. Now, instead of observing the cat, you are the cat and get to use your powers from being in a superposition to navigate the game.

It's very funny, starting from a metal pipe. Visuals are great, but level objects feel too restrictive on movement. The idea definitely can be expanded further!

I really like the idea of alternative timelines, but I think you could have made the superposition more meaningful in a way. Definitely a fun mechanic, maybe you should continue working on this and polish it a bit further. But it seems like a promising game to me anyways!

Creative premise! It would be cool if jumping between realities was more critical. For example, maybe in one reality, you can find the code to the safe but not open it. So you’d have to find the code, jump back to another reality, and then open the safe.

I love the little detail of the cat wearing the bag after you grab it! Good work!

Thanks! We had it set up to be that the key would open a drawer in a certain reality and then you would get more materials and so on, sadly we finished this just a few minutes after the end and only had this one to upload.

Wonderful idea and the cat! Good job!

Cool concept and could be really built out into something really interesting. Also cats, so that helps.

I LOVE this concept. It's got the potential to turn into a really unique point-and-click-esque-adventure game (which I personally have a huge soft spot for.) Obviously, this feels a little bit more like a proof of concept than others, but I still had a good time. The sound design and music was excellent.  Good work.

Of all the subjects I expected to see in this jam, quantum physics was between the least expected. But lovely game, I really laughed when I heard the metal pipe dropping sound effect in the opening cutscene! XD
