This one is a bit of a brain-melter. I was tempted to draw a diagram to figure out what needed to go where and how, but I soldiered through and figured it out with my brain.
The level is amusing to work out initially, but unfortunately I think once you figure out the logic, mapping out the level just turns it into a trivial maze. This is not a negative trait of the level itself, but it does mean that variations of this structure are much less interesting after you've solved something like this once. Its size just means that you're rewarded for understanding it, as not understanding makes the level much more painful to solve.
I so loved it! Needed about 30 tries. For half of those, I was 2 off and desperately tried to optimize my path, until I realized that... The cut was at the start! LOL
Fantastic. Fun to learn the intricacies of the pattern and make it to the exit at all, then also a few nice potential optimizations to find on top of that.
