Q: why was it developed?
A: We imagine that someone who hated boring alarm clocks and loved the Rubik's Cube so much that he sat around thinking of all the things he could make in its likeness, which eventually resulted in the 80's Cube Clock.

A: To set the correct time on the 80's Cube Clock, first rotate the top until it is in clock mode. Press the UP or DOWN button to choose between a 12-hour (am/pm) or 24-hour (military) format.

Q: When you set an alarm, do you have to keep the screen on the alarm one, or can you rotate it back to clock so you can see the time? Or does the alarm turn off once you are away from the alarm screen?
A: No, you don't have to keep the clock in the "alarm" position to keep the alarm on. You can turn the clock back to any other position (time, temperature, date) and the alarm will still be active. You can be sure of this by the small bell icon on the display screen. If the bell is there, then the alarm is on. If it is not, the alarm is off.

Q: i don't see a way to change the volume in the pictures. where does the sound for the alarm come from, and is it loud enough to wake a heavy sleeper? is there a backlight so you can see at night? thx!
A: The volume on the 80's Cube Clock cannot be adjusted and there is not a backlight. The sound comes from the bottom of the cube. This might be a small alarm clock, but it packs a pretty big sound. When we tested the alarm, it could be heard from several offices away.
