Rubik's Cube

Inspiration

Non-competitive and easygoing games are great stress relievers. We often play games, such as mazes and puzzles, to reduce anxiety or help our focus. Both of us enjoy solving Rubik's cube and as we realized that it is not available online a lot, having a Rubik's cube in an accessible and virtual method could be a great way of making a game to destress people.

What it does

It displays a 4x4 Rubik's cube that a user can move and change.

How we built it

By using jMonkeyEngine

Challenges we ran into

As we both code in Java primarily, we needed to learn a game engine that develops a game in Java from scratch

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We made a cube with all the colors we wanted to include!

What we learned

It takes more time than expected to get used to a new game engine or technology in general so people should start early.

What's next for Rubik's Cube

We will keep working on it to expand all dimensions in 3D and implement a user interface for the game to be actually played.
