Lumos Quantum Laboratory
This is a short game I made for the Summer of Math Exposition. It is the first video game I've ever made and the first time I've used C# or Unity. I learnt a lot while making it, and I hope you can learn something from playing it.
Contact me on discord at Lumos#8315 if you have questions, feedback, comments, or issues.
This is a puzzle game, inspired somewhat by the likes of Zachtronics. The levels are intended to teach you about the basic quantum gates and how they can be used to manipulate qubits.
There are 31 levels: 18 with 1 qubit, 10 with 2 qubits, and 3 levels with 3 qubits. There is also a sandbox mode for you to experiment with your own circuits on 4 qubits.
Due to the focus of the game, knowing how matrices and complex numbers work would be very helpful. However, I hope that the interactive experimentation available to a player allows anyone to solve most of the puzzles.
