Help!
I'm stuck on the swirly lights puzzle - the one where I have to get all the
puffy clouds the same color (white). I know I have to move in a square
pattern, but its not always possible. Is there some other way to do this?
I've been at this for ages and all I can do is reset it.

I've had so many problems with that I actually quit playing the game for a
couple of days. But the easiest pattern for me so far, is to go in a
triangle pattern. It doesn't take me quite as long as before. There are
other patterns that will work also, so it doesn't necessarily have to be a
square pattern.

I've done it using a triangle pattern as well. The key for me was to make
sure you never close in a still colored light with white lights, because you
wouldn't be able to get to it later.

I did it by making them mostly green and yellow and doing what forgiven
did.
