Took me two iterations to beat the level with limit 7, but otherwise pretty straightforward.

Would surely be interesting to see a more polished version of this.. could definitely become a very entertaining little game. :)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Also sorry for only providing a 64bit version of my game and your struggle to get it to run.
