True maybe you should tell them the answer directly because 99.99999999%(You are the other 0.000000000001%) that will think of a reverse puzzle
It does not matter what way you look at the puzzle, white pawns always start on a2.....h2 and black pawns on a7....h7. The coordinate system is related to the starting position of the standard chess game and the direction of play. The problem is not whether you flip or reverse or mirror or rotate the board, the square coordinates are still tied to the direction of the game. The author claims that Qg6 is the solution but a piece on g6 can never ever ever be protected by a white pawn on h7 because wPh7xg6 is an illegal move. Always, always, always. Unless you dramatically change a number of chess rules, that is.
Which implies that you can only make a fun puzzle with play directions when you omit the coordinates in the diagram display. This can be done in the "Theme" page of the puzzle editor.
Also note that several responders solved the puzzle correctly (including the same puzzle in a previous topic) - which means they played the queen to the right square - only they didn't name that square in the weird fashion of the OP.
@Goyael you are right. Qb3#.....

And after Qg6 black just plays hxg6.
If you purposely post a puzzle with the board flipped, then I'm answering at face value, I'm not going as if it were flipped the way you meant but you purposely posted it flipped the wrong way. Puzzles must follow the rules of chess. It's not a mate in one.

That's formally true. When you remove the coordinates along the sides of the diagram, there is still no standard mate in 1 but when you also allow "flipping" the board for fun then there is a mate in 1 and it is 1.Qb3#.
