all. I was confused by it too. The problem is that the simulator is true
to the way the *real* grooviks cube is seen, i.e. from the *bottom*.
The orientation of the monitors however suggests that you're looking at
the shared object from the *top*.
Your brain thus intuitively expects rotation around a different axis.
This is something we should talk about at the meeting today. For
purposes of the simulator we might want to change the view to the
topview - otherwise the results of the user interaction will be useless.
Right now its really confusing.

Actually the view is correct, but you're right that its not intuitive at all. I was confused by it too. The problem is that the simulator is true to the way the *real* grooviks cube is seen, i.e. from the *bottom*.
