I also really appreciate that there were skip cheat codes, because I don't think I would have figured out the rubiks's cube.
Overall a very interesting little jam game, I very much enjoyed playing it!
The only real issue I had was that final rubix cube challenge, imo rubix cubes are boring and frustrating, I tried for about 10 minutes before just skipping it.
The amount of polish in this title was outstanding, especially with the visuals, story and humor. Great job!!
