Sloppy Cube - Why is this magic cube puzzle so absurdly hard to scramble?

Sloppy Cube is a cubic shapemod of Melty D, suggested by David Tzur. The dihedral angle between axes is 87 degrees. This makes the cube look sloppy, even though it is highly accurate, and all faces are identical. As analysed by Bram Cohen, Melty D is a fascinating puzzle to get scrambled. Modding it into a cube makes it a bit more accessible to the general cubing public.

Is there a universal starting position or something so all algorithms read the same? Is it red on the right, blue in back, etc like one app I use to time my solves seems to expect as a starting position based on the scrambled state preview it shows with the randomly generated scramble?

I’ll solve it so you can’t scramble it
I would say: this is a rubiks cube, but it isn‘t. You can solve it, but you can‘t. It is one of a kind, but it isn‘t, because Mr. Van Deventer invents them daily. And now you know, why I am out of money.
How would you describe your strategy to scramble this puzzle?

It seems some of the diagonals are at the same angle, so you'd have to make them match again after every twist.

I love the idea of scrambling being the puzzle! I would present it the same way you suggested. Please though, may we see it scrambled? Or ideally, can we see you or someone else successfully scrambling it?
I would say to that person: "I'll give you €10,- if you can give this cube a good scramble, if you can't you owe me €10,-. Men I would be rich haha

Finally! A puzzle I can solve! 😄
very nice one!
I would let them play with it and then suddenly go "man wtf what did you do to my cube"
That blocks really easily and seems like it’d be very hard to solve once it got scrambled.

I would guess that at any moment there aren't much more than one or two possible moves you can make while trying to solve it so it wouldn't be that hard. To get it scrambled in the first place seems a lot harder to me

My fun discovery, Sloppy Cube intermediate transformation from 3x3 Cube to Insanity Cube (bypiramide). See Sloppy VS Insanity Cube
I've made a video showing my print of the puzzle. It's challenging to scramble, and insanely difficult to solve.
cool
Very, very unique idea. I've seen a lot of strange an unusual designs for twisty puzzles, many of them designed by you and others by other designers, but this one is a DEFINITE new twist on the entire cubing genre.... no pun intended. Very odd design, but it's a fun idea, and I like fun and crazy ideas like this.
I can't answer your question. But I think it's a very nice cube, I would like to have it in my collection and use to pkay jokes to non-cuber friends hahahahaha

It's for sale in the description, keep in mind this is 3d printed with a special process and made to order so it doesn't have the benefit of mass production where a lot are made and reduces the price. Also this is not injection moulded like a lot of twisty puzzles are mass produced so that will have a different feel/ will need to be assembled yourself.

@@mkjk2534 quality is in design, as you can see dollar store cubes are not the best but are mass production, while a puzzle like the one in the video are not intended for speed solving are good quality. There are speed cubes that are mass produced that are good but when you 3d print them in this material it doesn't feel good despite the quality of a polished injection mould.

@@unvergebeneid I do agree some of Oskars videos are teaser like. Because of the slightly angled cuts, once you make a turn, different angles align, effectively "bandaging" the cube, limiting the ways you can continue. In a way similar to the PocketCube, but less obvious.
