The colors are in a different order than when I played the game, but that box you colored white would be orange under your starting color configuration

There might be multiple solutions (although with the trouble this level causes people, I don't think it's the case), and I wouldn't call what you have "close"... i.e. none of your paths match mine.

If it helps, my solution fills the whole cube up, no gray squares left...

ShakeNBakes

not that I've had much time to look at it today, but I'm still pretty stuck with #28. For those who have gotten it (Jables), do I need to use every square to complete it, or is there a gap or two of gray space?

Haha, the post you are stuck and get unstuck trick worked!

Just so I can finish quickly...

I can't figure out 18.
19 has me stumped
20 is a pain
Argh, stuck on 21
Is 22 even possible?
I am on 23, considering gouging my eyes out
24, 24, why are you such a whore (is whore an allowable word?)
gah, I quit 25 is too hard
ugh, and I thought the previous 25 were tough, 26 rules me
I am so close, yet I can get past 27
The answer to 28 appears so easy, yet the little cube wont fade away!
I think I am going to need an extra cube to finish 29
30 is cake!!!
