I watched the encode of the currently published run out of curiousity and it looks like there is room for improvement in this run as well. 1-4 for example can be done in 32 moves by pushing the big block first. Not sure I'll try to make a full game run here, I might just look it over from time to time when I don't feel like doing anything else, but thought I'd mention it in case any one else is interested in this game.

Here are the improvements I found so far: 1-4 improved to 31 moves 1-9 same moves, one turn saved 2-1 improved to 97 moves 3-4 improved to 136 moves I think 2-1 is just a simple oversight. I looked at some of the other levels but many of them are more like just solving a maze, so aren't really that interesting. http://tasvideos.org/userfiles/info/47270114374730904

3-8 can be completed in 130 steps. Push this block up two times, go down and then continue from here.

hey cool find! Maybe you can find some other improvements and make a new submission. It always kind of bugs me when the puzzle games don't have fully optimal solutions.
