So, this is the game I have been working on for the past two weeks.

I have always liked the simplicity of this puzzle, in its rules and solution (hint: there is an incredibly easy pattern that will complete any tower, of any size).

I would like to see someone beat my record:
31 Moves (best possible)
45 Seconds
EDIT: After submitting this I beat it in 39 seconds.

And if anyone finds any errors or glitches, or even just has an idea on how to make it better, please leave a comment so I can fix it.

well, off to start my next game...

I write today,
A poem for you.
It's awful strange,
Because I'm so blue.
Emily's my idol,
so all my friends are cats.
and I'm deadly allergic
so I'll probably just croak.
Too bad I don't like frogs.

33 moves and 00:38 for time was the best I could get but I only played it for like 7 minutes so I think its good. You must be really good at this to get it in 31 moves.^^

I'm glad you liked it :D

If I may ask, what were your moves/time?

I know, those were all pretty fun though. And there is an easier way of thinking about it than recursively. (your time/moves is still pretty good though).

and what do you mean Queens won't accept AP classes? I hope it still prepared you for the actual course though.

Thank you. Thats still pretty good, and you probably don't even know the pattern.

actually 31 moves is the least possible, and I know it because I know the pattern. I am a computer programmer and so I know how to make a computer solve these puzzles on their own. I just used that pattern for myself :).

PS 33 moves and 38 seconds? thats incredibly speedy. Very nicely done :P
