For the game - I would be delighted to test it, but most likely this weekend or so. (Plus, Java sadly isn't the most user-friendly interface for browser-based things.) For getting feedback from quantum information researchers, I recommend posting to https://www.facebook.com/groups/qinfo.scientists.unite/ https://www.facebook.com/groups/qinfo.scientists.unite/. I see that you have similar taste/inspirations to mine (I am also a big fan of Test Tube Games (Velocity Raptor & Agent Higgs)). See also: https://hackpad.com/J0X4MSberlM?r=0 https://hackpad.com/J0X4MSberlM?r=0 for more picks (and feel invited to add more). For quantum games - in a week or so I plan to release my own - https://github.com/stared/quantum-game https://github.com/stared/quantum-game

Thanks. I'll check out the FB group you mention. Your game, or what we can currently see of it, reminds me of the (classical) "Reflections" laser game of a few years back which is a good thing! And I suspect the hackpad list will take me more than a weekend to play through :)

  I've heard about Reflections but it was mostly inspired by Chromatron (http://silverspaceship.com/chromatron/ http://silverspaceship.com/chromatron/), and a bit by The Incredible Machine. With this list - don't try to play it all at once. Some of these are potent drugs - not only addictive, but mind-altering (e.g. Hyperrogue, when you walk on a hyperbolic plane).

Velocity Raptor's end game screen was worth the insanity and craziness of dealing with time dilation at c=3mph. If the speed of light ever slows like that IRL though, I'm refusing to get out of bed. I'm also working on a game that at one point had a quantum mechanical theme, however it is more backstory than science. Quantum Traffic Control. Watch for it on the App Store sometime in this decade. Hopefully.

  I have to confess I never completed velocity raptor - I got stuck on level thirty something! Then again only 3 of 621 people who loaded QMM today managed to finish...
