What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early access will allow players a chance to get their hands dirty with quantum phenomena now, and will help us build a more stable and higher quality finished product. Testing feedback will help us find and squash bugs and refine features, and could lead to the addition of highly desired features.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The game should be in early access for approximately 2-3 months before it is released.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“For the finished product we want to implement a leader board and intelligent matchmaking, social media integration, a personal collection of different chess set styles to show off in online games, and an in game store to acquire new sets.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game is currently in an ALPHA state. With early access players will be able to play a working version of the game that includes Offline play (side-by-side in sandbox mode) and Online games against other players. Early access players will gain access to new features as they are added moving toward release, and will receive the full release version. The best way for early access players to learn to play is probably through Online games.

There are bugs. Your participation will help us find and squash them!”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“There is currently no plan to change price as we leave early access, but the addition of new features could change this.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We have an active Discord server https://discord.gg/t868Hmx through which we can interact with the community and receive valuable feedback. We will also be active on the Steam discussion boards.”

About This Game

Dive into the strange world of quantum mechanics in the game of Quantum Chess, the game you saw in Caltech IQIM's "Anyone Can Quantum" where Paul Rudd beat Stephen Hawking. With the addition of the Quantum Move players can position a single piece in multiple locations on the board at once! This puts a whole new spin on standard chess strategy, and allows everyone to get hands on with quantum phenomena like superposition and entanglement. Play against the computer, or pit your new found mastery against your friends in an Online match.
