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: This is without images and whatnot.
gollark: Wikipedia is "only" 15GB compressed, but the inverted index data structure this uses for search is biiiiig.
gollark: My search engine thing (https://search.osmarks.tk/) is now indexing the entire esolangs.org wiki for some reason!
gollark: https://search.osmarks.tk/I've made this search engine thing which technically works! If you have some interesting content to put in I'll go index it.
gollark: They don't want to waste time with people who actually have any sanity.
