Edit: tried this level again a year later. It’s still excellent - the initial idea needed to find the optimal solution is really clever and well-executed here. I think my initial review was a bit of an overreaction, but this is still a great level. :) Wish the last two weren’t necessary to cut though, I feel like the true path feels better without the cut.
Neat level. I could tell from the beginning exactly what it was asking me to do, but figuring out the right maneuvers to accomplish that was a bit tricky. Really clever and some nice close false routes too. :)
