I like it very much so far, some observations:

a) By default, I am ok with the "left mouse click to rotate slices and 
right mouse click to rotate the whole cube" interface, however I think 
it would be very nice if we had a very fast animation showing what 
happens after each click. No more than 4/5 frames, maybe 100ms or so. I 
think this would improve the experience a lot, as colors would not only 
"jump" but we would actually see the move, very quickly. I see that this 
can be achieved by enablind the "watch your own moves" option, but the 
tumble is a bit slow in the default. So, my suggestion is to also 
increase the default move speed, to 10 or so.

b) I had the impression there are two many dialog boxes telling me how 
not to do things. Not sure if there is a way around this, just my first 
impression.

c) For the moves specifically, is there really the need for the movement 
to end on a colored sticker in order for it to be registered? Maybe you 
can read the location of the mouseUp event, even if it falls outside the 
cube, and consider it as the move direction. This enables a very fluid 
mode of rotating the slices imo.
