Seems interesting, too bad it doesn't let you see the entire 4d object at once.

Looks confusing.

Do you mean world swapping? If so there, are plenty of other games that have done that. The one that sticks out in my mind is Tiem Fcuk.

The graphics and presentation reminds me of Little Big Story, which has become oddly refreshing. I guess we're heading towards the age of retro low-poly games.

That's literally impossible for us to experience.

I meant like a tesseract.

This is making my head spin.

I had that same thought this morning when I was the thread.

It's pretty cool. I've been waiting a long time for games to start properly utilizing 4D geometry. I hope that arena shooters catch on too.

Oh god, that would be so fun.

I'm so damn confused right now.

I was thinking of forking DCSS and implementing my own map system, though I've no idea how versatile the floor layout is and if it would allow something like this

If we imagine a cube, each floor represents a face on the cube, with each face neighboring four other faces and one more face that each of those all neighbor, every face has four cardinal boundaries with a door leading to the respective neighbor (boundary door), so going through the east door twice will lead you to the opposite face on the cube, and going through it twice more will bring you in through the left boundary door of the original face.
If we extend this logic to another dimension, much like each boundary of a face having a neighboring face, each face of the cube would have a neighboring cube and following the same rule as the faces, traversing twice easterly (through the face door) will bring you to the opposite cube on a tesseract, and traversing east twice more will bring you back to the original cube, except this time on the western face.
Each 4D hypercube would then follow the same rules, so on so forth such that a dimension level would have 2^(n-2)(n!/(2(n-2)!)) floors. You'd start off in a single floor and have to complete each floor on the cube to unlock the face doors, then have to complete every floor on the tesseract to unlock the cube doors, then complete every floor on the 5D-hypercube to unlock the tesseract door.
