I have no idea what will be happening to this level (some new records, or something), but I just wanted to say that I really enjoyed it.
At first I couldn't see how to do it to not get blocked. After I figured that out, the rest went faster. My first stepcount was very far away, I remember one try was 24 steps off, then I came 10 off, then 6 off, then 4 off ... and then I got another idea. It ended in 484. I tried two more options after that, but both were longer.
Very interesting and enjoyable shove level, IMO.
Finally a shove level that incorporates this. I've been trying a certain thing on so many shoves and it doesn't help, but it finally paid off here!
More stars then the solution probably warrants because i'm very happy this idea was used.
