Oh gotcha, I totally missed that you could hold Z to fast forward.
When I mentioned skipping, I just meant skipping the end-level counting sequence entirely once the puzzle is properly solved. It'd be nice to just jump straight to the next stage, Kind of like in Angry Birds, as soon as you kill the last pig, a skip button pops up so you don't have to sit there at the mercy of the physics engine waiting for the last bird to stop moving to proceed to the end screen.
But honestly, the fast-forward button basically solves that issue anyway. Thanks for the heads up and the reply.
