This was a neat entry. Short and sweet. The graphics are *great,* and the music is really well-done--especially that first tune, which reminded me of some sort of German Opera sung by a cat. Glorious, laugh-out-loud weltschmerz. I loved the way that the dialogue was written. I did actually have so much trouble with the final room that I almost had to give up on the game, though, because first I had no idea why pressing the red switch would make the scientist grab the ham (it wasn't clear that it was falling or suchlike, and second I didn't guess that the radio would have multiple stations I could turn it to--I thought I was supposed to do the radio and then look for something else to interact with it. In retrospect this was kinda dumb of me, but from there straight to a sort of non-sequitur ending I was a bit disappointed.
Your assets are amazing, the stealth sections were fun, and I loved the idea of astral-projecting yourself into the electrical socket. Thank you for the game!
I think it goes without saying that this game is incredible. Good work!

Excellent animation and art style. My only complaint is that aside from a few basic stealth elements the gameplay wasn't really there.

This game is pretty fun, awesome graphics and game mechanics as well. :3
5 stars for graphics, audio, humor, and mood! Some of the best in the whole LD. Amazing game!

Absolutely stunning art and storytelling. The music perfectly complements the environment, setting and overall mood of the game. The characters have great personality and style. The gameplay is simple but well executed. Well done!

Lot of fun! great job!
Truly impressed by the quality of the graphics, the high finish level, the sound design and others.
Also an original and really well thought idea of the use of the schrodinger's cat concept.
Amazing work, Bravo !

Very nice! Graphics and location fit well and it's a lot of fun to play.
Lol :) Some awesomes quotes here ! There's a lot of game with undeads but quantic undead is a lot more fun :)
Bug (+spoiler) : on the last sequence the first time I clicked on the plug for the anvil shrodinger was walking without moving. After that with a second click the anvi lanim played but shrodinger stayed in that stance ( no death anim or splash, just walking )
That's one sexy game. Just everything about it is gorgeous!
Great effort, especially loved the graphics!

Really reminded me of Ghost Trick, and that's always a good thing!
I have only a few minor complaints about the glorious package that is this game (apart from the obvious typos). In the first screen I got Maru to run in place and the controls were somewhat stiff all over the place (the ghost controls were fine though). The ham and the anvil not having a cool falling animation also broke the illusion somewhat. Really nice entry especially when it comes to the aesthetics!

One of the best this LD. Art is amazing.
A-wesome!
What a really cool idea! Schnitzels, rock'n roll and quantum cats - what more do I want?! :)
Really enjoyed that game! Lovely graphics! And all the details. And I even like the music. Really, really good!

Neat! Has a very Ghost Trick feel to it & a nice take on stealth/puzzle games :P Art is fantastic, as is the audio.

Wow! o_o
Amazing quality! The graphics and the music are superb!
The game is really fun and funny, even with few possible interactions (for a point-and-click). Even the passages were you had to wait and move cautiously were fun because of the animations.
Congrats! =D
Awesome animations
Ah ah excellent point'n'click :) Everything is very intuitive and feels natural!
Love the animations and the music!

Pick up the sausage! Wait.. where's the sausage? T_T
Great game! :)
Very nice art style, very smooth controls! A few issues. The wall sockets don't really look interactable (other interactive items are bright red) so it took me a long time to start using them. Also, it's real easy to lose a level and then watch the opening again, which gets frustrating. Otherwise, cool stuff.

Aside from the graphics it was an ok point and click. Understandable in the time it took to make such amazing graphics. Top notch entry, great job.
Such polish! Stunning work. You get ALL the STARS
FIVE STAR SWEEP. You are a winner! Put this game on steam!
Awesome game! I liked the cat themed songs and the rendering effect you guys did.
Now this one's a gem! I LOVE the assets and the idea of the cat being both alive and dead is hilarious. I really hope this wins!
amazing, simply, amazing. Amazing graphics, sound was brilliant, and the game play was engaging and fun. bookmarked, will be playing again, and hope to see a full version of this soon! Way to go everyone! :)

Ok, that was legit. So addicting, so much fun. You guys did an amazing job. Music, graphics, story, concept - everything came together beautifully. Nicely done!
Awesome! The only thing that could improve this game is more content! Keep it up!
Love it, amazing graphics, great sounds, idea is excellent, one of the best entries, AWESOME!!!
Amazing game
One word - BRILLIANT!
It is really good with the story, music and graphics but it is too short in my opinion.

Graphics are great

I must be missing something... stuck on the very first level lol. I'm clicking on literally everything I can without him seeing me, and nothing is happening? That aside, the game looks gorgeous, audio is awesome and mood/humour is great.

Very great super game. I really enjoyed playing. What an amazing peace of gamedev essence. Thank you for this entry.
Superbly executed game. All aspects really well worked. Rare to such a game in LD. I'm very happy to have played it. It didn't matter that it was quite short. To actually get to complete one or two games is truly rewarding too. I usually find something to complain about but I don't feel like there was anything, except maybe a re-play button and some easter egg thing on the final screen...
Gorgeous and funny! I felt like the last puzzle was a bit cheap. Maybe I missed a clue but I solved it only by randomly clicking on things. Perhaps this was just due to the time crunch, which is understandable. Great concept and well executed.

The mood was excellently set in this game. Lots of different sounds and music for actions. I really liked how music and sound effects worked together brilliantly. A great game in every aspect.
Nice ! The anvil part was a bit counter-intuitive, otherwise the game was fun to play. Cats are evil, I knew it 8).
Awesome and amazing! That's right!

Really nice. I see you few minutes before Mt-live ending (Sillyguy)
Love Quotes, Graphics, and great idea for the theme.
Beautiful graphics and atmosphere with the music and lighting effects. Good humor too.
This is an amazing entry.
Great writing, beautiful art. Fantastic.
Incredible amount of polish on this game. I appreciated the quantum physics jokes as well.

Incredible entry. Loved the art, music, animation and dialogue. I would totally play this if it was any longer, but I guess it's just perfect the way it is. Congratulations! :)
Wow this is really beautiful. Very well done and polished. It's amazing that this game was done in 72h. Definitely my favourite so far!

Got stuck in the last scene (just started clicking around randomly, where'd that anvil come from?)

Great work, one of the best I've seen!
Fantastic Music and Graphics. Also very clever puzzles. Funny also the german words Schrödinger says. Unfortunately it crashed in the radio level.
This game is amazing.
This game taught me that cats can be bad, even when they are dead haha! Got a lot of déjà vus of Ghost Trick, not that it's a bad thing!

Thanks for testing our game, really it's moving because we did not expect such enthusiasm ;)
we'll try to do better next LD in december!
man, fantastic package, so polished and charming. well done.
Oh my god, I'm getting some intense Ghost Trick vibes here, and I couldn't be happier.
This plays like a dream, but if I was to suggest anything it would be a little more consistency to what you can interact with in Ghost Mode - all the switches are in red and that makes sense, but I fell the electrical sockets should be too.
Thanks for making this! It was real cute.
That is so freaking cool!
A really solid entry, fun to see a point and click game! I like that it was a little like ghost trick, but I liked the setting for this game a lot more than that of ghost trick. Funny monologues as well! Shrödinger was really gangly and creepy, hehe. The last puzzle felt a little less polished, but overall the game holds a really high amount of polish. Awesome work! :D
Yup, that game is pretty excellent, even if short. Kinda reminds me of Ghost Trick. Graphics and animations, various soundtracks, pretty fun puzzles and the cat.
...come to think of it, it really is like Ghost Trick. O.o"
Sure I wouldn't mind seeing more of that...
I really enjoyed the mood throught superb graphics and effects, good music and delirious story. Excellent job :)
Fantastic game, the art is top notch and the gameplay is hilarious.
Nice art! It was interesting but I couldn't get past the food part.

It seems a very polished game, but it got stuck for me (some games in Ludum Dare seems to have problems with the flash debug player , I think)

Hi, here's some feedback about your game.
What i liked :
- The subjet you choose (Schrodinger) and the atmosphere you built around
- The realization, it's neat and really playable.
- The cat narration
- Musics and sounds
- Graphics and animations
- The difficulty (pretty well balanced imo)
What imo could be improved :
- The ending. An anvil ? Really ? There was better to do !
- Your game description. It's alot better than announced, don't talk about bugs (didn't see one, but maybe it was correcteed by the time ?), just keep the positive part, even if you think your game doesn't deserve too much praise. You can still highlight the parts your proud of and keep that humble approach without the negative points =)
A very good overall, thanks for the game !
Very intriguing take on the theme, Puzzles and mechanics are very fun and art is also very well done. Good job!

Scheiße :D ? Awesome, really awesome job. reminded me of Phantom Detective - Ghost Trick. Big respect (!) for the graphics and the animation, though I'm a bit offended about the Schnitzel delivery ;) I'm German, and Schnitzel tastes best when it's made 100% fresh ^^ no delivery can be that quick :D
Such a nicely polished entry, liked the puzzle aspect and the way you used the theme of connected worlds. Great art and the music worked so well. The animation of the cat in the box movement was my favourite, loved the bouncing nature of it. Also was able to play till the end so that's always a good sign. Did feel like the last puzzle screen was a bit out of the blue though with the chicken and anvil.

HAHA turns out my LD entry isn't the only one involving a ghost cat! THIS IS SO GOOD. Schrodinger's cat as a game mechanic? SO AWESOME AND CLEVER. Superb visual design, and that soundtrack is absolutely killer. I love everything about this entry. SO POLISHED

Really good game, especially the graphics and the music (the first one is really great). And the idea is really good. I study in physics, but I would have never thought of something like that!
What a greate adventure! I like everything! Cat is hillarious! Very nice small story. One of the best, definately.
