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

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. :)

Only problem is rubiks cube isn't a challenge anymore :P I've gotten 3 turns down (I actually just figured it out now :P)

So I'm now moving onto 4 twists!

Sure it is, how fast can you solve one? My best is 45 seconds.

This puzzle is rather obnoxious.

Lol it has some nuances that do make it slightly irritating

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 RIDICULOUS :mrgreen:
