| This was fun. Once I realized what the problem was (how to take a knight through every square of a chessboard, only visiting each square once, and ending where you started), I just pulled out my graph paper and pencil. When I had my solution, putting it into the game was easy. Thanks for the challenge. | ||||

| I just solved this one. I printed off a sheet of paper with the numbers 1 through 64, cut it up into pieces with individual numbers and tried to arrange them into a tour on my chessboard. No need for erasers. :) | ||||

| Okay...I must confess...I cheated; I looked up a solution online... But what a neat level! I'm going to try to solve the next one soon... |

| I'm the one who solved it, but I cheated (I have a graph theory textbook with a knight's tour on the cover). I didn't feel right claiming the speedrun under those circumstances... | ||||

| Just wondering, why didn't anyone claim the speed record? (There is certainly someone who solved this before me, and it is clear that any solution optimized to the same length...) | ||||

| Actually, all of the graphs I've made so far (probably 5+) have had multiple disjoint cycles. If only I could put those bonus points to good use! | ||||

| Two cycles? It sounds like you should get bonus points. Don't lose hope! | ||||

| And my second, which I was much more careful about... | ||||

| Dammit, it turns out my paper solution had two cycles, not one. ;) | ||||

| Very very slick! | ||||

| BTW, I really like the zoom in & zoom out features for editing ([ and ]). It would be neat if you could play that way. | ||||

| Here's my implementation of the famous Knight's Tour. This puzzle is challenging, but you should be able to solve it without looking up the solution or writing a program. My original embedding idea had a smaller game board, but it required 64 hugbots. Like, what am I supposed to do with only 9 robots? |
