The following is the fruit of a two-week experiment. Details to come. In the meantime, feel free to tell us what you think! For those who are interested, the post-mortem can be read here.

(Please also report any bugs you run into in the comments. We’ve found most of them, but there’s undoubtedly some furtive ones we’ve overlooked.)

CatStatic Interactive presents: QBCUBE

CONTROLS:
  • Use the keyboard to control QB.
  • WASD for movement
  • hold down the SPACEBAR to rotate the world!
  • Right-click in the game to go full-screen



UPDATE (15/2/2011):
We’ve recently completed a QBCUBE re-release for the Kongregate Unity Game contest. Please vote for us!.

UPDATE (30/7/2010):
QBCUBE is getting a fair amount of attention on the web, and so we replaced the ‘borrowed’ (in very good faith) C64 music with some appropriate royalty-free music. Hope you like it! Also, due to the overwhelming response, we are seriously considering developing the QBCUBE prototype into a finished product. If you enjoyed the game and feel it has potential, you can help us by donating to the CatStatic QBCUBE fund. Any amount will be most sincerely appreciated!

    That is pretty cool – I’m not far in yet, and I’m also suffering from some variety of food poisoning, but the music has strong enough airs of ‘feed the world’ that I find myself experiencing a very negative visceral reaction.

    Ah: I think the choice of perspective gets in the way – where a lot of things line up in strange ways (though maybe it’s played upon effectively – I spent something like 99 moves getting through level 2, so maybe that counts : P ), and I also find the controls a bit bad – isometric wsad is always a bit problematic.

    But, you know, if ye’re all okay with these things, that’s fine by me.

    I gotta get back to throwing up now : (

    Awesome, love it. Just got sucked for an hour, even though the controls were pretty tough to use on a dvorak keyboard. (awsd is pretty scattered).
