Tom and Jerry in Midnight Snack is a Flash game based on the Tom & Jerry franchise. The objective of this game is to guide a sleepwalking Jerry to another mousehole by dragging arrows and springs into the level.
I used to play this game back on Teletoon Retro's website, back when that was still a thing. Anyone still remember Teletoon?

Notes
The hardest part of this run is not falling to sleep yourself with how slow Jerry sleepwalks. All keys have to be collected in order to open the mouse door. You can only place arrows and springs on empty squares.
Springs launch Jerry forward, allowing him to jump over the next square, skipping whatever is on it. Jerry moves faster when on a spring, so it's faster to use them in your route, even in places where it's not necessary.
Green arrows change direction every 19 frames. I only had to deal with the first one, and I didn't have to waste any frames to get the correct direction. Orange arrows disappear after being walked on.
After completing the final level, the game congratulates you for beating 80 levels. This is a typo, as there are only 20.
After redoing some levels, I saved 7 seconds in Level 19, 6 seconds in Level 20, and another 3 in Level 10. I feel like the solutions I have are optimal, but who knows? Maybe there's something I'm just not seeing.
