I am aware that they are not technically Rubik's Cubes, and that these are general twisty puzzles, but I decided to keep the title, and then correct it during the introduction sequence. This is my longest video so far, and it might not be as good as the first part, but hopefully it's still fun. I'm probably not going to make another one of these, because it seems like I've exhausted all I can do with weird puzzles so far, but I'll make other videos after this one.

Anyway, here are the credits:

The joke music at the end is Kevin MacLeod - Aces High but pitched up one semitone:    • Aces High  
I first heard it in a similar video with moving images of Pepsi cans instead, and I wanted to replicate that for this bit at the end.
The rest of the music was done by me, which is why it's so bad. Yes, that was indeed Ode to Joy with extraneous percussion.

The visuals:
OnShape for the ones at 0:48 and 14:25
Unity (the game engine) for the visuals in the crazy 4x4x4 section
Twizzle Explorer for the cut depth visuals starting at 3:29

The messages at 11:43 were included with permission, which is why they're not anonymised.

(Technically one from Christopher Moore as well, at 3:38, but it doesn't appear for long)

I can't be bothered to credit all the images as of now. Maybe next time.
