* RuleOfSymbolism: The autosave icon differs based on whether you're in Alpha Orionis or one of its post-apocalyptic counterparts. [[UsefulNotes/SchrodingersCat In the former, it depicts a cat alive and well; in the latter, the cat is dead, or at least sleeping.]]

Everett is the name of an old man wearing a large, purple top hat. The protagonist is unnamed and is simply called "kid".


One day, inventor Everett designed what he thought would be his greatest invention yet: a computer that can make easy contact with parallel universes. After something goes wrong, he inadvertently winds up giving himself the ability to jump between universes. Now forever stuck in other universes outside of his own, he must work his way through his own past to find his way back home.

The game is a {{Retraux}}-style 2D platformer where every stage of the game has dozens of different variants, each set in a different universe. At the press of a button, Everett can move between universes to help move through each level.
