I have no idea what I am trying to even do? I got a red and white cube.... Ok now what? What does winning look like? There is no indication of what it means to solve this puzzle or what I am supposed to do.

Fun idea on the cube. I tried it on my laptop and:
* Found it hard to select the tape and drag it with the touchpad. If I happened to click in between two tiles I would rotate instead of moving. Very frustrating.
* Your link starts out solved? So I moved it around and then got bored.
Not a complaint or anything. I could simply not be the audience but I figured you'd be interested in just hearing from a rando normie.
