Navigating The Cubefield Flash Game

By Sonia Michalik


Cubefield is a game where you try to avoid cubes while traveling through a field. Cubes must be avoided by using the left and right arrow keys. It any cube is hit even once, play ends. It is simple, addicting, and fun, though not as easy as it sounds.

Cubefield is a flash game using a flash player for graphics and animation. Flash games usually contain relatively simple graphics and animation, focusing more on skill and ability. This interface is no exception to this definition. The graphics are not complex and the focus is on ability instead of the details.

The display is very interesting in this three-dimensional environment. The screen appears to tilt and move with you. This makes for more interesting game play as it makes it more difficult to avoid the cubes that appear in front of you. You need to move back and forth quickly to stay alive. When playing, you almost feel as if you are actually in the game.

The points add up quickly in this game. This is nice because play flows very quickly. It is deceptively difficult and ends relatively quickly. It is the kind of game that is easily played repetitiously. With enough practice, an individual could easily master the basics and develop their own strategies and techniques.

Once the pattern of cube placement is studied and learned, game play becomes easier. Most games contain set patterns of object placement. Cubes can only be arranged so many numbers of ways and the levels are going to appear in the same places in each level. Once a level is played so many times, it becomes easier to see the patterns.

The game is played with against a bland, gray background populated with brightly colored cubes. This makes the cubes easily identifiable, but also difficult to avoid. Your eyes are drawn to the bright colors, making you more likely to hit the cubes. The cubes are placed in front, to the left, and to the right of you. It seems as soon as you avoid one, another one immediately appears.

The speed of gameplay is set perfectly. It is not so slow as to become boring or less of challenge. It is not so fast as to be too much of a challenge. The pace allows it to be a challenge to both the novice and expert players. While it will be much more difficult to a novice player, a more experienced player will face his own challenges.

A typical flash game, this is deceptively simple and addicting. Traveling through space avoiding cubes is surprisingly entertaining. It is fun and challenging for all ages and ability levels. Any player will want to use the skills he develops to try to make it as far as he can get. This is more easily said than done and makes playing as addictive as it is. Most people who play this will want to refine their skills and develop their own methods, techniques, and strategies for better game play.
