It's a Cube version 2.1 major changes (see changelog.txt included in the download for more details):
- Added full controller support!
- Updated the in-game tutorial page and added a tab for controller controls.

It's a Cube now has full controller support! You can now navigate the menus and rotate the cube both using the directional pad on your controller if you'd prefer to over using your keyboard.
Next up
Oh yeah, also, I updated that algorithm for dash handling I shared yesterday so I can set the dash duration via the inspector window!
I've decided to have the statistics behind the quests in Hensen Hopper be handled as actions reported to the quest manager rather than try to write variables into a whole bunch of scripts solely for quests.
The beetle shell is now fully VISUALLY implemented! Next thing on my list is a unique sound for Hensen equipping it.
I'm working on adding in-game achievements for It's a Cube that correspond to the Game Jolt trophies. I also plan to make versions of the in-game art for these to use as trophy icons for the game's page on Game Jolt eventually.
I am impressed by my past self right now. The algorithm behind the unimplemented dashing mechanic (that I wrote like a year ago) uses a sine wave to smoothly increase/decrease Hensen's movement speed for a dash. That is so clever! I actually wrote this!?
Four hours in, and my autistic hyperfixation of the year has already spawned. I'm planning on DIY-ing a tensegrity dining table this year thanks to a video by Steve Mould where he showcased a small one. Oh yeah, also, Hensen Hopper, I'll work on that too.
I wrote a modular language system! I can now add new entries with definitions in as many languages as I please and all from the inspector window in the Unity editor! This allows me to potentially have Hensen Hopper translated to other languages easily!
This is a much larger (in terms of resolution) video than I've shared here before!!!
This is a full round of Hensen Hopper in it's current state! I mainly recorded this to showcase the new wave difficulty curve algorithm I've been working on!
I updated the algorithm that handles the timer gradually decreasing as the game progresses! Before, it would decrease by 1 second when the player scored certain amounts, but now it gradually decreases according to a multiplier each round.
I'm working on a main menu now! I think it's coming along quite nicely so far. Oh and I've also improved the model for the cube as well.
