Key Features

1. Quantum Mechanics Integration:

• The game features 3 qubits that players can control using various quantum gates:
  • X Gate: Flips the state of a qubit
  • H Gate (Hadamard): Puts a qubit into a superposition of states
  • CX Gate: Applies a conditional X gate
  • XC Gate: Applies a conditional X gate in the opposite direction
• By applying these gates, players can create quantum states ranging from 000 to 111, which corresponds to the positions of the enemies in the night sky.

2. Intuitive Controls:

• Movement is controlled using the left, right, up, and down arrow keys.
• The quantum gates are mapped to the following keys: X, Z (for Hadamard), A, S.

3. Difficulty Customization:

• Players can adjust the number of qubits in the game from 3 to 2, making the game easier with fewer possible states.
• The speed of the enemies can also be changed in the main menu, adjusting the overall difficulty of the game.

4. Visuals and Audio:

• The game features vibrant, colorful visuals and a captivating soundtrack to immerse players in the quantum space combat experience.
