  Wow, I beat it. Very nice level, very hard!

  I have proven using A* that 200 moves is the length of an optimal solution. Unfortunately, I have not been able to figure out why the solution works.

  Added solution "Alternate":
Huh, apparently there's more than one way to do this! My solution is different, although still exactly 200 moves. (although I'm sure this will cease to be surprising once I figure out the theory behind this...)

  I like how the exit falls asleep at 200 as if bored by your lack of sphere-pushing skills.

Usually super-tight timer levels are a bit too cruel, but this level directly exercises a specific skill that requires non-trivial reasoning in order to optimize. I believe that 200 moves is the minimum possible, unless my reasoning is flawed.

By the way, this shows off the new timer prefab.
