Solve programming puzzles on a fictional computer with radio-based communication and unique limitations. Competitively optimize to compete on leaderboards against friends and the global community. Note: Though featuring programming and set in a time when quantum physics was the hip new thing, nothing related to modern &quot;quantum computing&quot; is included in this game. <img class="bb_img" src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3175190/extras/764b20a7aea60744494f8115005df1ca.webp?t=1759265687" width=600 height=42 />From your friends at QuantumPulse Ltd we are excited to introduce the brand new QuantumPulse 2A Professional Computer and Visualization Interface: The most powerful device releasing in '77! With its novel on-chip radios, hi-tech BBS interface, and exclusive hardware addons, the QP-2A is sure to win your heart and mind. Compete against your friends in programming challenges to earn GOLD STARS! And ACT FAST: The first to complete the certification course will receive a complimentary unopened pack of traditional Kostovian playing cards.
