this is really interesting. when i first glanced at this, i thought i figured the solution right away. but.. it turned out that i read the ending wrongly and ^ missed something by 1 frame. i had to literally reverse the clean solution to something more brute which works but it's not as stylish. because of that, i think it's not the intended way. or maybe  dustin  did the same thought process and ended up with the same solution but somehow i doubt it.. :)

 nesdori , your comment doesn't sound as if you have my solution. i was hoping that my solution is the only one but i wasn't sure because the cave intentionally has some "strategic traps", i.e. plausible-looking solution strategies which fail.   
  
if your solution turns out to be too far away from mine, i'll probably try to fix it before revealing my solution because i really like the intended way and i want to have a cave where this is the only possibility ;)

 dustin , i think my solution has some intended parts and it's definitely not a short-cuttish. so i guess it's better just to wait for other solutions and not yet spoil anything by revealing it?

 nesdori , i agree. i also didn't mean that i wanted to see your run immediately. the usual 2-3 days are perfectly fine :)

 nesdori , my curiosity wins now although it's only 1 1/2 days so far :d would you like to reveal your run?   
  
btw i think i know what your "^ missed sth by 1 frame" idea was. it must be one of my intended "strategic traps" :d   
  
i still don't see an alternative to the intended solution, but on the other hand, if we had the same solution, it's hard for me to believe that you'd call it less stylish than the almost-solution. so i'm absolutely not sure if our solutions are identic :d

well my choice of words was maybe too strong :)  
  
my solution uses a push which must be timed perfectly (1/4). other timings trap both flies or the bottom fly gets exploded. but no luck needed because the push can be tried until it succeeds. so the circling flies on the upper left corner are intentional; i use them as a timer to do the push. my first idea was simple and after i was forced to do different perfect timing solution instead it didn't feel as smooth and stylish :)

 nesdori , ah! i actually completely forgot the pushing possibility. luckily, this is obviously very easy to fix :d
