I would like to take this opportunity to discuss the present and future of this game.

The current core gameplay of the game is to click to control the player to walk, and then create the whole world by walking. As you unlock more and more hexagons, the world you create will become more and more complex.

But the game currently runs into a few major problems:

1. The core gameplay is too simple

The freedom of the game is not very simple in a way, and players usually feel bored after unlocking all the cubes. So the core gameplay may still be too simple

2. Few hexagonal types

Forgive me for not having the energy to add too much complex art material. It's an exhausting job. But adding more hexagons would definitely be a good idea.

3. Slow pace of the game

I think the best game rhythm is a dynamic game rhythm. Later in the game players would prefer to go faster and even unlock new ways to move. But no matter how to say the existing game rhythm in 100 hexagons after the game will feel very slow. Maybe I need to make the characters go faster and faster. But this is another technical issue that I still need to explore.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What is certain is that this game is an exciting experiment. I also learned a lot from the dozens of hours of Unity tutorials. I was miserable during the process, but I was very happy after seeing the finished product. This is probably the path every game developer must take.
