The game is complete. I hope you'll have fun :)

RULES :
A RED cube is a cube you possess.
A BLUE cube is a scanned and free cube.
A GREEN cube is a guardian. They are your enemies.

You start as a RED cube. You need to reach the GOLDEN cube by creating a control path to it.
You can SCAN the neighbors of BLUE / RED cubes by right-clicking on it. Neighbors will reveal their colors.
You can CONTROL the neighbors of a RED cube by left-clicking on it ONCE it has been scanned.
You can CREATE links by dragging your mouse between two cubes (only in a horizontal or vertical way).

Notice :

1) The content is randomly generated. That means sometimes, a game can't be won, and sometimes, it's too easy. 'Cause like a villain, life is unfair !

2) Two actions can be made on the same case, the time counter will show only the last one (but both actions will occur).

3) There's also a little bug that allow players to cheat.
Try to find it ;)

About the theme :
I was not very inspired by the theme. You play an evil cube trying to infect the others. Maybe original, but I could have done far better !

About the music : Made with MuLabs (Window, free version).

About the graphics : Photoshop, some fonts from dafont and code only.

About the light system : Inspired from an article on the SFML wiki.

Feel free to ask anything !

Windows notes : The game might not be able to run on old / integrated GPU (I use shaders). 64bits only; otherwise, please compile from the source with latest SFML revision

Linux notes : You need SFMl to be installed on your system. 64bits only; otherwise, please compile from the source with latest SFML revision

Dev notes :
Source code is awful. The last hours were kinda rushed, so you'll find horrible things. This was my IRL-RPG interpretation of "You're the villain !"
