About Shift Quantum
Shift Quantum is a puzzle platformer set in a black-and-white cyber reality. You use Shifting to invert the world, turning barriers into escape routes, and manipulate your surroundings to solve levels and reach the exit. The story follows a mysterious AI-controlled character and a search for happiness promised by Axon Vertigo, the secret company behind the Shift Quantum brain program.
Shift through levels
You use special gameplay blocks to overcome obstacles and combine puzzle and action mechanics across more than 100 solo levels. The game includes eight new and unique gameplay elements, with challenges built around changing the world and revealing its secrets.
Create and share levels
An embedded, fully fledged level editor lets you create custom levels and publish them to the community. You can play community levels from all platforms, including levels shared across Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Switch. The game also features level-creation contests, speedruns, and weekly votes that select top levels for showcase.
