I was experimenting with golden ratios and trying to make a board size that is the most aesthetically pleasing. Since the golden ratio is approximately 1:1.61803399, my choices were somewhere between a board size of 100,000,000 columns by 161,803,399 rows or 2 columns by 3 rows. I settled for a size that should take fewer seconds to solve than the total number of atoms in the universe. I thought 10 columns by 16 rows makes a nice looking board, and you should be able to solve it in just a few minutes.
Edit: I removed a pearl that was unnecessary to arrive at a solution. I updated the Puz Pre link, too. I'm sure there's more pearls I could remove, but I'm not that good at getting it to a bare minimum yet. I just happened to get lucky with the one I took out.
