DS homebrew announcements > Cube-DS: Rubik's Cube Game for DS v0.7

#173715 - SatNav - Sun Apr 25, 2010 4:45 pm

This is the first 'proper' release of my Rubik's Cube game for the DS. Although it is currently a little way from completion, it is intended to be a fairly fully-featured Rubik's Cube simulator with saving and loading, scrambling, painting and solving features. You can download the rom here.

Working as of this release:
* Saving and loading
* Scrambling
* Palette editing
* Painting

Still to do:
* Step-through solving
* Background decoration (colours, wallpapers)

Any and all feedback is appreciated, and for those interested, the full source can be found here

Cheers,
Mark.

Hey, this is a very nice game! I like to play with Rubik's cube, and with this app it's easier to do it anywhere.


Features that are awesome:

- Colouring the labels of the cube. This is a very nice touch.
- Three save slots.

Unfortunately the saved cubes disappear for me when I reset the DS. I'm using an M3 Perfect SD (Slot-2). DLDI patching didn't solve the issue.


Features I'd like to see:

- Full free spin of the cube (example). The orientation of the cube as of now can't be changed, 'up' side is always upwards and 'down' side is always downwards.
- The other features you mention, step-through solving and background decoration (colours, wallpapers).
- Undo move / redo move.
