I liked implementing some simple quantum effects as mechanics for a game

Nice twist on a fun shooter style game :)
I liked the story & concept, it's a really unique idea. I feel it would've been nicer to have a target cursor for where the mouse is instead of the default mouse icon, just so I could see it a bit better - the icon was quite small on screen and the shoot directional arrow from the particle wave graphic isn't really where I'm looking...
Great game though - nice story, funky sci-fi background and well made. Great job!
Fun and clever! The dialogue really added to it combined with the music, well made!
I really like the concept of quantum physics being turned into somewhat tactical defense/shooter game it was really interesting. I would like if the dialogue was skippable by player input and not based on time, but other than that I had fun!
I found it to be relaxing to play and I liked the little pixilart scientist.

I like how you managed to turn quantum mechanics concepts into a game. I had the issue that when I lose, I need to reload the page and start from the beginning (or maybe I just missed a button). Also, I'm not a fast reader, and if you miss what the scientist says about the controls, you basically have to guess. It would be nice if the current controls that are being taught stay on the screen during the tutorial phase.
But overall, it was a good game. I liked it :)
Thank you for your feedback! You are right, for some reason when I exported the WebGL version the death screen did not work. Unfortunately, I can't patch it until the end of the voting period.
Really interesting setting and concept. Cool game!
Interesting concept, I enjoyed playing it, although I got overwhelmed at some point =))
It was pretty cool. Liked idea. Good stuff. I wish there was option to skip dialogue and easier way to back to action.
Thank you for your feedback! I'll implement that on my next games :)
super charming! It sounds like there are actual quantum physics being simulated here?
Thank you! No quantum physics simulations, but the model of the Waveboy is based on actual quantum mechanics
I really like the background and the science being taught. Gameplay is fun and cool too. Some projectiles negating each other and others bouncing off. I think the difficult ramps up a bit too quickly, at least for me. The way the scientist introduces new controls is a nice touch.
Thank you! I'm still figuring out how to make a smoother transition in difficulty.
Good Game
