This is a MARVELOUS level ! At first I was light years away, then I reached 14 off, and got stuck there. Later I found the 10 off, then 8, then 4, then 2. Then - another 2. The mistake I was doing, was really silly and is probably not what anybody would think (wasn't in the centre). :) 273 tries !
Totally took about 15-20 minutes for me to figure out the optimizations and how to do it. Really need to be carefully analyzing. p.s. actually, I like the levels and appreciate your work. But in response to your question, I think I would say "follow your heart" :)
Cut 6 off my path (and took away some parts of the level I liked :(), but still 4 off. It's annoying to not be able to beat my own levels. :P Should I keep making these or are they just getting tedious?
EDIT OK got it, but still.
