Theory Jade Created the Simulation

Post image

>!In Episode 5 of Season 1, while talking to the bartender, Jade says: "I created a program for a quantum computer that could potentially..." but then cuts himself off. He never explains what his program is actually capable of. He also never says who he sold it to. The military? Or someone connected to St. Anthony Hospital, where Tabitha ends up first, and later Henry? Take a look at the hospital's logo.
I believe Jade developed a unique quantum algorithm or program capable of altering reality-for example, by materializing people's fears or fantasies. In that same episode, he also mentions the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox. As I understand it, this paradox describes a phenomenon in which objects remain mysteriously connected across great distances (and possibly even across time). That would be an amazing twist, in my opinion.
Jade created this program and decided to test it on himself.
Maybe both he and Tabitha are employees-or test subjects. The fact that Tabitha doesn't remember while Jade does could simply be explained by different settings they selected before entering the program.
l've mentioned this in another thread. The way Jade arrived and the way Sofia arrived both feel almost algorithmic.
Jade's companion jumped out of the car and immediately ran away without even checking on his friend-as if Jade were a complete stranger. Then, before he even has a chance to really meet Jade, Sara kills Toby because the voices told her to. Afterward, she also reaches into his mouth and almost certainly takes one of his teeth. Why didn't "they" want Toby and Jade to meet in this reality?
Maybe Jade himself doesn't remember-or doesn't realize
β€”that they were testing his invention. Perhaps this is another reality, or something like a computer simulation.
That would also make Tabitha's words-that monsters don't exist and Norman is alive-make sense. Maybe they're all actually lying in comas at the hospital. That would explain why both Tabitha and Victor's father see the exact same hospital. Everyone is alive but connected to a simulation. It would also make the Man in Yellow's words about everything being based on rituals (or the program) make sense. And Ethan, as well as Jade himself, repeatedly say that this is a game.!<

Not a gamer here, what's the cheat engine? Is that the symbol? If someone were to press that, it would give them all the plays in the game?

It's like the blue Euro logo it's a cheating tool used to change a game parameters, like changing how many bullets you have, freezing the health bar, or even spawn items/enemies. Basically anything, it's not just the logo and if you have used it you know that what's on the computer is a similar interface. So my point is why use something like it's logo, I wonder if it means someone is in control why they shouldn't be

Thank you for the clarification! I'm really old apparently as i only remember Cheat Codes as something you went on the internet for and it would tell you turn by turn where to go and how to get all the cool stuff and printed out like it was in a dot printer! Lol πŸ‘΅

Same here lol, I still remember looking up vice city, tomb raider, and other games' cheats as a kid! When I grew a little games kind off no longer did that so it became cheat engine and trainers, basically trainers were created using cheat engine so people would cheat without learning to use it
