This is super cool. Thanks for making this video!

[MagnsCrLsn]

It's like being memory wipe and learning Rubik's cube again

[nerdlord]

I now know what people feel like when I try to teach them a normal 3x3.

"lets keep the yellow cell on the in side because for the next part we're gonna need the yellow cell on the in side"
no for real this is the best guide there is out there every other ones discouraged me thank you very much

[Carbon-lifeform]

I was kind of following at the start so maybe I could probably learn from this tutorial but I need to get better at three-dimensional 3 by 3.
You very smart.

Just solved after ~6-7 hours. The hardest part turned out to be figuring out the orientation of pieces before inserting. I did not get parity. I hope to come back and solve it w/o the use of this video. This was very fun to solve and I see why people do too.

You know you've gone off the deep end when u start getting stuff like this in your recommended

To make the new colors work: You need to reload the puzzle in the Menu: Puzzle > 4 4 3 Hypercube > 3, and the puzzle loaded with the right colors

32:16 513, 809 for the whole solve with the easy parity alg
thanks for this great tutorial
(690 move solve 2)

525 moves after step 7, 934 at the end. That was a fun tutorial. Most complicated parts were the "center caps" permutated, tried to grasp it but kept running in circles, took a while to figure out a full 4 cycle of centers needing to rotate was just a yellow cell rotation once the U perm stuff was done. Setting up COLL and last layer F2L had the same mindblowing effect, I guess I could practice a regular 3D cube but viewed in projected 2D to get used to manipulating pieces that feel disconnected, really felt like a beginner not understanding what a sequence of 3 moves would do to like 2 pieces I'm actively staring at.

In the off chance you read this, is there a way to do M slices with RKT? Like a U perm alg using M slices. Or algs that use a cube rotation, like A perm (I translated it without rotation to solve this). Just wondering how that works since RKT uses rotations as setup already.

Awesome work blob!!! I love it. Very detailed and descriptive. Also other things that have opened up more for me when I'm solving 😀😀😀!

[ReirtoRRNTX]

Really great tutorial, you explain it really good

[Ghost-]

Hi! I know the video is old, but I'd like to tell you that you've helped me with this video, not only in solving a 3x3x3x3 puzzle like this one, but also in starting to solve a 3x3x3x3x3 (5D) puzzle.
So far, I've done all the white 2c, 3c, and 4c pieces using the same algorithms in the video, since they seem to work the same. Now, I'll need to create a new algorithm for the sixteen 5c pieces I have left to solve on the white hyperface.
Cheers!

[annevanderbijl]

Yay! Solved my first one, in 3.5 hours and 1227 but i’m proud i succeeded

[CookieMage]

Mate, this is 100 percent what non cubers see with a normal cube

[ericthecuberspeedcuber]

It took me 2 and a half hours and 889 moves for me to solve for the first time.
32:15 560 moves at this point.
This is so confusing especially the first layer.

[CoolStop]

yay now I can finally solve all of the 4d cubes I have in my closet

[ScarletEmber]

I'll definitely come back, but I'm honestly gonna try and solve it all by myself.
Whether I come back because I solved it and want to see how my method compares, or just because I gave up, is to be determined xD

Without watching completely your video, I have added this onto my list of island survival goods.

Me, who can't even solve the 3d Rubik's cube: yes, I understood that well
