As a Rubicks cube lover i liked the feel of this game, good job, it gets hard in the end and i love it

Developer

Thank you for liking our game!

Very easy to understand once I got the hang of it. I'm glad you kept the main game easy, it could be a quite hard game. I enjoyed the puzzle a lot too, but I wish there was another way to do the controls.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback and we are trying to improve the control part!

Great game! Excellent execution! Really enjoyed it!

Developer

Thank you!!!

A better tutorial could help but it was a really great game taking the already known idea of a rubiks cube but forcing very specific movements to solve the puzzle. Really great game and Idea.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback!

Really cool. Would have liked to play more but sadly my mouse wheel is broken. I really love the idea and execution behind this game

Developer

We will definitely make a version that could be played without a mouse!

As a big fan of Rubik's cubes and minesweeper, this is my favorite game of the jam, hands down.

Developer

Thank you for playing our game and thank you for the feedback!

This is a really cool strategy game. The cover art caught my attention and I had a fun time playing.

Thanks!! We are glad that you had a good time!

Took me a while to get started (the tutorial text was kind of confusing) but a lot of fun once I figured it out. I loved the aesthetic and explosions!

Developer

Thanks!!

This is CRAZY, minesweeper and a Rubik's??? More like 4d chess. Great work. 

Developer

Thank you for the feedback and thank you for playing!

Genius idea of combining Rubik's cube and minesweeper!

Never was good at Rubik's cube solving tho, so didn't make it thru 3rd level 

Developer

Thanks!!

HOW!??!?!?

There is a little fairy helping us (just kidding LOL. Thank you for playing!

interesting idea! It was a bit difficult for me to figure out how the controls worked, but i did start to get the hang of it. The pieces moving to show which axis you're on helped, but maybe some sort of color change/additional UI would help make it clearer!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! Since the time was limited in the jam, we will try those ideas these days! Those are great ideas!

Submitted(+1)

The idea of combining Minesweeper and Rubik's Cube is very original and fits the theme of the game very well. The game art is also very beautiful and the level puzzles are challenging. It's really awesome! I love it.

Developer

Thank you sooooo much! We will try to make it a better game!

很棒,除了操控方面有些瑕疵,我给了全满分。

玩了很久,刚开始是因为有时候会转错方向,后来是因为有时候会转错行列,最后是因为在思考怎么才能设计更好的交互方案。

我建议抛弃鼠标滚轮操作,并加上一些控制柄,在鼠标不指向魔方的时候隐藏,指向单一魔方块时半透明显示,指向控制柄的时候完全显示,这样在画面中不会显得太过杂乱,同时又保证了控制方式一目了然。

在指向控制柄后鼠标变为抓手,抓住某一控制柄,根据控制柄的方向,控制该列或行绕魔方中心旋转。


只是一点小建议,或许你们有更好的控制方式,只是时间来不及实现,相信如果给你们更多的时间一定会把游戏打磨得更好更有趣。

Developer

感谢大佬!我们会尝试您的建议让这个游戏变得更好的!非常感谢!!

Cool idea but the controls could be better

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! We are working on a better way!

Submitted(+1)

Neat game, but unfortunately I don't think there's any way to make a digital rubik's cube be controlled as easily as an actual physical one.

Developer

We will work on that in the future LOL! Thanks for playing!

Submitted(+1)

It's an interesting reversal. It's almost like solving a Rubik's cube.

Developer

Yeah! Thank you!!

Submitted(+1)

This is really cool and really interesting, albeit kind of difficult lol. Great Submission!

Developer

Thank you for playing our game!

Submitted(+1)

This game's art style is amazing! It looks much better than what most people can do in 48 hours. It also fits the theme perfectly.

Developer

Thanks!

A really clever idea, connecting 2 different games (minesweeper and Rubik's cube).

One major nitpick is that the steering can be frustrating at times, not choosing the right plane to rotate.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback! We are making a better guidance!
