Quantumleaper
Release: 2019
In Quantumleaper, you’ll play as Alexander Schrödinger and use your Superposition ability to solve puzzles that would be otherwise impossible to complete. Duplicate your position with a single button and press it again to switch between your two selves at any time, no matter how far.
You can use your other self to activate switches, mislead enemies and block projectiles. Sometimes, even tunnel through walls. As you progress, new components will require you to find new ways to advance – using both intelligence and skill through a huge maze filled with deadly puzzles.
Throughout your journey, you will gather clues that will help you understand the true nature of the experiment. Soon, you will meet the Spooky Agents, enemies that can control quantum fields and manipulate the forces of nature. Though intelligent, they didn't expect a human being to be in the experiment and now they see Alexander as a source of contamination that must be eliminated.
And you take care of all these issues while being assisted by Zombie Cat, an illiterate kitten that communicates with you through a cellphone.
Like the theories that served as inspiration for it, Quantumleaper is a game about duality: sometimes you will be able to take your time to solve a puzzle, sometimes you will be expected to fight and act fast. You have two simultaneous health systems: a percentual HP, that will be affected by enemy damage, and hearts, that are taken away by lethal hits. It's possible to die through one system but stay alive with the other, causing Alexander to split into a dead version and a living one.
This duality is also present in the artistic elements. The music is a mix of classic piano and synthetic tunes. The graphics combine 2D sprites and 3D environments. Story-wise, Alexander always expects the worst of any situation that is out of his control. At the same time, he is always optimistic about the options he's left with. Zombie Cat is concerned about their friendship and, yet, he doesn't care about forcing Alexander into dangerous tests. He plays the role of a guiding companion, but his explanations are often incomplete or misleading, subverting the role of a typical tutorial pop-up character.
features
Superposition: a simple, yet powerful new mechanic that provides a fresh take on the puzzle-platformer formula.
Complex Levels: each level is composed of multiple puzzles and they get increasingly bigger and intricate.
Spooky Agents: powerful bosses that will require mastering the use of superposition.
Exploration: the game starts linear and gets more and more open as players advance.
Life Plates: elusive secrets that are hidden deep in the experiment.
An Intriguing Story: a protagonist that doesn't accept handwaves and tries his best to analyze the bizarre situation he is in.
Custom Engine: Quantumleaper uses its own engine written from scratch, which guarantees good performance even on low-end machines.
