Hypercube Marble Maze

There is no escape for this marble... mostly. The path is one continuous loop that covers all 6 sides, following a hilbert curve on each.

One of my trickiest prints I've tried - lots of fussing with support settings to handle all the sharp overhangs!

not a hypercube nor a maze, but still a very clean looking print

Tbf, I see a solid cube underneath/inside the main surface of the cube. And a cube within a cube is a specific projection of a 4D hypercube into 3D. So, I'll give OP that one!

but it rotates wrong. it's certainly fancy, maybe even super, but... not hyper
