INTRODUCTIO
N
This project, titled Maze(Quantum Leap) , presents a Python-
based game set within a quantum-themed maze . The objective
is to navigate a quantum particle (P) through various obstacles
and reach the Goal (G).The game includes quantum mechanics
inspired elements such as Wormholes (W), Quantum Flux (Q),
and Entanglement (E).This game helps players to explore
decision making and visualize basic maze/puzzle solving skills.

MAZE DISPLAY:

The game design centers on a

two dimensional matrix realm
representing the maze. Each
element in the matrix
corresponds to a unique
obstacle.
“ # “ : Wall
“ “ : Empty Space
“ W “ : Wormhole
“ Q “ : Quantum Flux
“ E “ : Entanglement

The particle starts at position [1,1], and the game loop

continuous the user for directional movement (UP, DOWN,
LEFT, RIGHT). The player's decisions determine navigation,
influenced by the presence of obstacles.

RESULTS

Player can reach the goal through trial, error, and understanding of
the maze.

The provided Python code implements a simple text-based maze
game called "Quantum Leap," where the player controls a particle
"P" navigating through a grid-based quantum realm to reach a goal
"G." The game features obstacles and special cells that affect the
player's score and probability. Here's a detailed explanation of the
code:

Code:
particle_position = [1, 1]
score = 0
probability = 0.5
particle_position holds the current row and column of the
particle, initially at position (1,1).
score tracks the player's score.
probability is a floating-point number starting at 0.5,
representing a quantum probability factor that can be
modified during the game.
Main game loop
Code:
while True:
for r in range(len(realm)):
row_display = ""
for c in range(len(realm[r])):
if [r, c] == particle_position:
row_display += "P "
else:
cell = realm[r][c]
if cell == " ":
row_display += ". "
else:
row_display += cell + " "
print(row_display)

The game runs indefinitely until the player quits or reaches

the goal.
It prints the maze each turn:
The particle's current position is shown as P.
Empty spaces are shown as dots . for clarity.
Other cells show their respective symbols.
 Status Display and Player Input
Code:
print("Probability: {:.2f} | Score: {}".format(probability, score))
move = input("Move (UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT) or QUIT:
").strip().upper()
Displays the current probability and score.
Prompts the player to enter a move command or quit.
Quit Condition
Code:
if move == "QUIT":
print("Game exited. Final score:", score)
break
If the player types "QUIT," the game ends and displays the final score.
Calculate New Position Based on Move
Code:
new_row = particle_position[0]
new_col = particle_position[1]
if move == "UP":
new_row -= 1
elif move == "DOWN":
new_row += 1
elif move == "LEFT":
new_col -= 1
elif move == "RIGHT":
new_col += 1
else:
print("Invalid move. Move UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT or QUIT.\
n")
continue
Updates the new position coordinates depending on the move
command.
If the input is invalid, it prints an error and restarts the loop.
Boundary and Wall Checks
Code:
if new_row < 0 or new_row >= len(realm) or new_col < 0 or
new_col >= len(realm[0]):
print("You can't move outside the realm\n")
continue
if realm[new_row][new_col] == "#":
print("There's a wall blocking your way\n")
continue
Prevents moving outside the maze boundaries.
Prevents moving into a wall cell.
 Update Particle Position
Code:
particle_position = [new_row, new_col]
cell = realm[new_row][new_col]
Updates the particle's position to the new valid location.
Retrieves the cell type at the new position.
Cell Effects
Code:
if cell == "W":
print("You entered a Wormhole. Teleporting to start position.")
particle_position = [1, 1]
score += 10
elif cell == "Q":
print("Quantum Flux alters your probability")
probability += 0.1
if probability > 1.0:
probability = 1.0
score += 20
elif cell == "E":
print("Entanglement doubles your score")
score = score * 2 if score > 0 else 10
elif cell == "G":
print("Congratulations, You reached the GOAL")
print("Final score:", score)
break
else:
print("Moved safely.\n")
The game reacts differently depending on the cell entered
