Centre Cleared (New Web-based puzzle)

This is a new online puzzle game created by me, and programmed by K073.
By using arrow keys or WASD, you can move the black box around the grid.
When the black box has moved to another position, it changes the colour of a block.
The goal is to make all blocks to its main colour, at the same time positioning the black box to its origin.

Try your best to beat the time!

Currently I'm averaging around 2 seconds for 2 colour 3x3 grid.

10x10 5 colour (would have done larger, but it started scrolling my browser) in 7:13:173. 630 moves.

I just systematically removed the outer two layers first, then worked on reducing the size of the remaining mess, while moving any stray pieces together. After clearing all the colours, it's easy to move the black box towards the centre.

Woo 5 color 20x20 in 00:05:43:961. Could do better since I was talking to other people online, but I won't bother doing this again for now.

Don't know how to approach ctrclr2 though. I'll try that out later.

Edit 2: 00:00:02:440 of 100, I'm done for now. ctclr2 is way more fun IMO

Do either of you mind if I steal this idea and create a 3d version of this? I've been meaning to start a new programming project, and I think that this would be lots of fun if I made these little games into a project. I will, of course, give credit to you both.

Does anyone else want a 3d version?

That be pretty cool. And it would add a whole new dimension of difficulty (pun intended).

Meh. CtrClr2 5 color 4x4. I only had a method that really worked for the last two. The rest were just guessing and checking for the most part.

Yes
Controls would be a bit awkward, though.
I think forwards and backwards should be controlled with right/left click, and then WASD for directions on the current plane.

I also had an urge to make a program like this for my ZuneHD, but, unfortunately, don't know much about XNA programming.
