First of all let me start this by saying that I haven't had any programming experience before Löve2D and Lua. Yes, 1 week before I didn't even know Löve's basic things. But, in 1 week I could make this game. I hope this serves as a guide to total beginners (like me) which will show them what they can do in one week :)
Anyway, enjoy! :ultraglee:

Interesting! My only complaint is that the red box teleports. I kept getting stuck in it randomly and that doesn't seem fair, as you don't even get a chance to avoid it. :P

That's the point. I wanted red box to move, but couldn't make it not teleport to player itself. So, it's a bit of luck. I made it to 127.

I got to 250 then quit. I had a lot more fun than I expected to. I did think the names of the cubes were a bit cliche. I'd recommend changing them to cube puns, simply because all games are better with puns.

Can you be more specific about 'cube puns'?
Also, I'm glad that you had fun :)

EDIT: I've just remembered this thread. This is so nostalgic :3
