Maybe not the greatest platformer in the world, but I thought it was pretty fun to "bamboozle" your enemies by becoming a Rubics Cube. had a good laugh :)

This was really an unconventional weapon! (I'm looking at my Rubik's cube right now)

Harsh lava on level C!

Pretty neat game. I sucked at it couldn't get past C but the Rubik's cube was a fun idea

Funny idea, maybe a short story explaining it would be nice :D

Like it, but that level C lava. Wouldn't mind if the game started over on the level the player died on.

Very simple and creative take on the theme. It would have been great if you could control the character while jumping. Other than that, it's a very solid game! (Also very difficult!)

Nice weapon, third level almost unbeatable and i like it!

Well, it's certainly unconventional! As for the game itself, the platformer engine seems a little shaky. Also, it's annoying that the insta-kill fires send you all the way back to the beginning of the game. I think you overestimate how skilled people will be at navigating those jumps!

Nice entry, would have been nice if the player didn't freeze in mid air when turning into the rubiks cube, made it quite hard on some bits. Good effort though, was fun to play!

Well, that definitely was an unconventional weapon!

The mechanics are nice yet a bit clunky. The permanent death is quite unforgiving considering the floaty controls, especially the lava's collision box in the 3rd level, which I couldn't pass. May need a little effort in level design and logically a checkpoint. Controlling the Rubik's Cube might feel very satisfying if it was possible. Great entry nonetheless!

Now that's a cool idea! The controls are really tricky though, and the mechanic is tough to use right. Once I got the hang of it I did ok. :D Wish there were checkpoints.

Wasn't to sure on the movement and how it felt, but i loved turning into a rubix cube great use of theme in my opinion haha
