How does the game fit the theme?
In order for Schrödinger's cat to reach the end of each level, it's important to risk it! The cat has to jump over their greatest fear: boxes, which makes the cat lose 1 life!
Also, it's Schrödinger's cat after all, so it can't be TOO alive, otherwise it'll burst, so they can't get too many hearts.
But... It'll surely risk it to earn a biscuit from Schrödinger.

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
The tiles: https://bdragon1727.itch.io/pixel-tilemap-platformer
I've reused a bunch of the code created during Brackey's Godot tutorial as well.

cool

It was interesting play on schrodinger's cat Although,with the game needing you to be at 1 heart to finish the level, the boxes aren't so much risky as they are needed to manage your health

Hi, cool to see platformers, took me some time to get the gimmick, but managed to beat all levels! Very cool, just the camera was sometimes a bit unfriendly :)

Interesting game mechanic, and very fitting for Schrödinger's cat. The earlier levels did feel like they repeated or were very similar, but I enjoyed playing!

Very innovative mechanic and plattform puzzle! Loved how you translated the concept into a game mechanic!! Super creative!! 😊😊😊🎉

Feels a little incomplete but with a bit of work this could really be something fun! Overall nice work  *this game was live reviewed here:  twitch.tv/gratefulllyivory (will post vod after stream)

Really Good Game, This Was a New Kind Of Game Concept For Me And It Was Real Fun , Great Work :)

Very interesting mechanic, I had fun playing! Visuals are pretty neat as well. I would give theme 5 stars if it gave the player more choice somehow, as although making jumps is risky, I am forced to do so. Cool game overall though :)

Liked the game mechanics but struggled with like the third level beacuse of the camera.

Developer

Glad you liked it! What was the issue with the camera? I noticed that on a few browsers and resolutions the camera can be too zoomed in/out, was it something of the sort or something else?

The thing was that I wasn't able to look down so I can't see where I'm about to land.

Great idea, would have loved to see it expanded on a bit more. Some sfx would be nice as well!

Developer

Thanks! I had a lot of fun designing it, so I'm looking forward to polishing and making more levels and mechanics for it. I wanted to make other kinds of boxes that would affect the cat differently, like making they float instead of just jumping, stuff like that. Let's see how it goes :D

This is a real cool take on the theme, if your gonna keep adding stuff I think a reset button would be cool. 

Developer

Thanks a lot, it was a lot of fun! And good point! Resetting the level and/or the whole game would go a long way, specially since there are some bugs that asks for a complete reset :(. Thanks for pointing that out!
