Gameplay
Menu screen, which allows selection of preconfigured cube layout
The game implements a Pocket Cube, Rubik's Cube, and Rubik's Revenge, but instead of rotating the sections of the cube, the player runs around, switching out the colors. However, the player cannot run onto a square of the same color that is being switched.
Reception
gollark: The K80 is actually two K40s glued together.
gollark: Move Mercury into Earth orbit.
gollark: You'd have to bring a bunch of servers over and slowly mirror everything.
gollark: Or just upload your brain to computers™, which is definitely a good idea.
gollark: Physics may disallow convenient FTL, but you can simply remain in fancy stasis of some kind™ for the trip.
