meow :3

unless I missed something 36 area is min, I'm pretty sure 35 area is impossible though.

making a solve with almost 700+ instructions is hell (my first 36 area solve had 1019 instructions), thank critelli for omclone.

There doesn't seem to be a lot of options for layouts.

I did try a few different layouts, most being obviously unviable due to awkward projection or rejection placement.

I think I have a pretty low cycle count for this layout, but I might have still missed something.

Still shaving of cycles right before the deadline :3
