Yo puzzle people
So I like a good puzzle and I found this: http://www.superliminal.com/cube/cube.htm
Now I see how it should work, how each part moves relative to the next... the only problem is I can't get the faces to twist! I keep reading you just have to click one a move the mouse, but all this does is rotate the entire object. I also tried holding ctrl+clicking and same thing. Now if I right click it makes the faces shift (if you try it you'll know what I mean) but that's no good if I can't move faces. So if anyone can figure out the controls of this thing I'd love to know :D
Edit: Hm I downloaded a different version that said it was for linux: http://linux.softpedia.com/dyn-postdown ... 31&t=0&i=1 and it works fine

Re: Yo puzzle people
You just click on the blocks. The middle ones cause rotation.

I prefer Rubik's Cube personally, much easier when it's in your hand.eatcomics wrote:Yeah the other one I had didn't do that, as I said in the edit this version works fine stil its a really fun puzzle of course I'm working on learning to solve 3 twists :P the whole thing will be killerdandymcgee wrote:You just click on the blocks.

This puzzle is rather obnoxious.

Slightly irritating? Coming from a guy who could do the 3x3 up to the 5x5 at one point, I think I'm qualified to say that it's FUCKING RIDICULOUSeatcomics wrote:Lol it has some nuances that do make it slightly irritating
Quit procrastinating and make something awesome.
