Checkout the latest Kixforms game - its called "Quinto" ... heres an abstract:

Quinto

This extremely difficult puzzle game requires KiXforms 2.3.0 Beta 3. The object of the game is to flip all the pieces on the board using as few moves as possible. Clicking on a piece will flip it as well as the pieces above, below, to the left and to the right of the selected piece. Simply extract the contents of the ZIP file to a directory and then run quinto.kix.

Make sure the download the latest special build before running this game. Click Help->About to get game instructions. One can change the board size through the File->Board Size menu option. The 3x3 aint so bad, but the 4x4 has me stumped, its goes all the way up to 8x8 !

Go to the Kixforms Script Archive and click on Quinto.

I beat the 3x3 board in 5 moves. Have not played the other board sizes. Only played the 3x3 board twice.

Too many other things going on for this weekend.

Howard's 4x4 score shocked the heck out of me. The original .net app had a best score of 4 recorded for that board, I (and a couple others) thought that 4 was a typo, that 4 was impossible acutally, and that it was supposed to be 14 ! Then (ahem) Howard figured it out. ahem.
