At first blush, the environs and first-person perspective of puzzle platformer Q.U.B.E. might look familiar. The game tasks you with manipulating a series of coloured three-dimensional cubes that have various effects on the environment. It looks to me like living inside a Rubik’s Cube and Stephen Totilo liked it when he laid eyes on it this summer. Q.U.B.E.’s the first game supported by Indie Fund — the collective of all-star independent developers — to make it out into the wild, so there’s a strong chance that it’ll be worth your cash.

Sunday, January 8, 2012 at 12:46 AMProbably even less. Q.U.B.E. is $14.99, Orcs Must Die is also $14.99 and OMD was discounted by 75% during their last sale so I wouldn’t be surprised if Steam pimped Q.U.B.E. for uber cheap (-75%) in one of their big sales.
