QuantumPulse 2A

QuantumPulse 2A is a programming puzzle game set on a fictional computer. You solve puzzles by programming in assembly language; a tutorial is included, and coding experience is helpful but assembly language experience is not required. The game does not involve modern quantum computing: its computing challenges come from parallelism and synchronization.

Programming puzzles

The game includes more than 25 puzzles. Many are easy to solve but difficult to optimize, and solving puzzles unlocks new puzzles and seven different chips for use in future puzzles. When you first open a puzzle, you have the same tools available as anyone whose score you compare against.

The fictional computer communicates by broadcasting to radio channels. Conditional operators test values broadcast from other chips. You can use an integrated debugger with time rewinding, syntax checking, a quick language reference and a full reference manual.

Leaderboards

Compare your solutions with friends or the global community on leaderboards for run-time, lines of code and cost of components.

Solitaire

The game also includes a Solitaire minigame.
