Ideas for expanding the game beyond the livestream code base

[HuangJunye]

If you are interested in expanding the game beyond the code base shown in the live streaming series, here are some ideas:

• More game-focused ideas
  • Add menu
  • Add sound effects
  • Make 2-player mode
  • Port QPong in other programming languages. For example, port to JavaScript will allow it to be easily playable on a browser, allowing more people to play.
• More quantum-focused ideas
  • Think about using quantum effects to impact game play
    • superposition
    • entanglement
    • noise
