so excited for this experiment to come to a close,
we have many plans for this technology now that i know how to use these commands
there may be more cubes in this 'tread'(if thats the right word? idk)
but for now i am satiated
i think it took like a year according to friends to make it this far
though i didnt like constantly work on it for a year
i've been passively looking around for most of it
its only the last like 2 months that ive been working on it hardcore
the cube can now:
- exist, it is 6 squares in the correct orientation, again
- rotate, it spins when you poke it, need to make that occur without interaction though
- spin on its center, again
- can be resized to whatever i need it to be while keeping these properties
this will allow for:
- blog cube, my blog but unreadable, just to learn the api for that one now
- books / movies, html renders of the scans of book and dvd covers
eventually I hope to get this to:
- change the size of the faces based on the image given
- allow for buttons external to the cube to rotate the cube, or maybe scroll wheel???
- maybe more sides? like a football or something idk
- have it open up eventually, where the 'covers' open up or the 'case' opens
- for that last one ill also need to actually think about performance and how to cull faces that are facing away or covered
- it would also be cool for the dvd cases to have faces of the cube that are different depending on what side you're on
