I gave up on trying to solve Rubik's cubes many years ago, so I weaponised an algorithm that can
I made this!

Nice.
This looks great. Do you have any plans for expanding to a 4x4? I can do a 3x3 in sub-60s but I've got a 4x4 sitting half-finished on my desk that taunts me.

It could scale up and down. The odd number of rows/columns lends itself well to targeting a reference square and guiding the user to the correct grip. Manual would work though.

This is very nice.
But I do wish people would just share the algorithm so I can learn it.

Sebastian Lague has done a couple of videos on cube solving algorithms of late:

I use this method
Stuff trying to memorise it. My brain no worky like that

In the timer version, why does the length of the solve time influence the complexity?
I thought it would speed up the solve moves in an amusing way if I set it to 2 seconds but it just got more stupid

It doesn't, but as it's a timer, it intentionally takes a longer route to get to a solve. I think this is more pleasing. Usually, the algorithm is never more than about 20 moves away from a guaranteed solve
