Playful Experiment
Sum of Cubes
A topology-first spatial puzzle exploring shape, connection, and emergent constraints. This page shares the idea, rules, and the design thinking behind the prototype.
Concept
Sum of Cubes is about assembling shapes where local connections influence global possibilities. The puzzle emphasizes topology over raw geometry—pieces connect by adjacency and constraints arise from how connections overlap.
What I explored
- Topology-first puzzle design
- Emergent constraints from local rules
- Simple, playable interactions
