Centre Cleared (New Web-based puzzle)

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?

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.

I'd most likely use wasd+up+down or something along those lines.
This will be made sometime in January. This weekend and Christmas break, I am making a very useful cubing-related program, that I think a LOT of people will enjoy. :)

5 color 20x20 in 00:05:43:961.
ctrclr: 4:33.651 first try :p
ctrclr2: 4:52:797 (1630 moves :o)

Average: 00:00:00:846
2 color 2x2! :D
Haha. CtrClr, right? That puzzle is so trivial. With 50-move scrambles I got 0.041 avg5 and 0.196 avg12.

18x18 5 colours: 3:14.375 535 moves.
20x20 5 coulors: 1:53.532 365 moves.
Great game!
Wow, it looks like whatever method you are doing is much more efficient than mine.
 
Rofl my method for 20x20 sucks. It's basically the same as my 4x4 method.

13:38.504 minutes, 2220 moves. :P

EDIT: ^ Lol you seem to have the same problem as me. How did he get faster on 20x20 than 18x18?

EDIT2: 1:15 5 Colour 6x6, 220 Moves. Seems respectable, except not compared to KConny's 20x20 solve. He used almost as few moves, >.<
Second solve: 58.209, 150 moves. Getting better.

Psh alright then. You weren't clear on what the second time is though. Is that ctrclr2 5 color 20x20?

EDIT: Just tried ctrclr2 5 color 20x20 with the result of 6:39:560 in 1720 moves, so I would assume that that's what you were doing above.

I'm fine with that. What platform will you be using? Java? Or flash?
