Not colors but different lighting.

In fact each room needs to be unique recognizable and should hold a hint to the proper exit(s).
That's very important if there are moving rooms otherwise it's very confusing for the player.

I've found a way how to define levels very easy.
And there will be a simple algorithm possible also i'm shure.

I use a projection of the rooms to 2D and number them serially.
Then they get a connection for each exit. These exits have to be joined. The result is the hypercube system.

Each room is described unique recognizable and the "good" exit possibly marked (by a hint) or maybe the order of the rooms it self is a hint.
The traps are dead ends anyway.

here's a draft (without trap rooms):

WOW!! O.o looks like a very hard game, but its a really smart system

Nice Plan..

Is the algorithm Self-correcting? Means.. Moving rooms. If Room 6 Moves, the connections to 7, 2, 5 and itself are Not working anymore ^^

we have some kind of cube contest

may be you can work together...

i´ve many Cube models ( including a 1:1 Model of the Hypercube Rooms )..

Perhaps i can use it for my ANet tries XD ( 3-user-War)

@Esper: Lol XD.
Well we could work together, but we are integrating 2 different gameplaystyles.
Thats why our projects are still different.

But general discussing of techiques, constructions etc is no problem

New demo (still bare hypercubes) but a new detailed cube model (first post link).
Can you please post your framerate (F11)?

FPS -> 61 to 65

Intel P4 2.4GHz,
ATI HD 5770,
Windows XP SP3

cheers,

when i was watching all three movies i was thinking this would make an interesting game. keep at it its looking good ill have to try what you have so far
