Everett · QUANTA 08 (Demo)

QUANTA 08 · Many worlds. Out of the quantum foam at the bottom of Planck, the little man lands on a glowing tree of paths, where every choice he makes splits the world in two.

Step off a fork and you go one way while a pale ghost of you takes the other. Ghosts only move when you do: they walk straight on, turn a corner when there is only one way to go, and wait when there is a choice. Send one down a side branch to take a key while you head for the door, or leave one standing on a plate to hold a gate open behind you. Some rooms let you jump into a ghost and be the you that is somewhere else. Reach the ring of light to finish a room.

This free demo is Chapter 01, Branch: two tutorial rooms and three real rooms, about 3 to 5 minutes. The full game ($2.99, pay more if you like, on this page) has eight chapters and 44 rooms, with plates and gates, branch jumps, two ghosts at once, a finale that awards the Avogadro constant Nₐ, and an Endless mode. It runs offline from one file, with no ads.

Headphones recommended: the 8D sound is generated live.
