SOLUTION FREE! :D  
  
THE HIGHLIGHT IS OF COURSE THE EXPLOSION TECHNIQUE. IF I RECALL CORRECTLY, THIS CSO TRICK HADN'T BEEN IN THIS SERIES YET.  
IT WORKS AS FOLLOWS (O = EMPTY SPACE):  
  
OOΖΒΔ  
OΚΓΔΔ  
ΔΔΔΔΔ  
  
THAT'S BASICALLY THE STARTING POINT. THE Ζ IS NOW SCANNED FIRST. IT CHECKS IF IT "SEES" Κ BESIDE IT WHICH IS NOT THE CASE, SO IT DOES NOT EXPLODE. INSTEAD, IT MOVES LEFT, Κ IS SCANNED AFTERWARDS AND ESCAPES TO THE RIGHT.  
  
OΖOΒΔ  
OOΚΔΔ  
ΔΔΔΔΔ  
  
AGAIN THE Ζ IS SCANNED FIRST. IT STILL CANNOT "SEE" Κ, SO IT MOVES DOWN. Κ ESCAPES UPWARDS.  
  
OOΚΒΔ  
OΖOΔΔ  
ΔΔΔΔΔ  
  
THIS TIME, Κ IS SCANNED FIRST, AND HE MOVES UP (OUT OF MY 5X3 RECTANGLE, IN FACT.) NOTE THAT Κ MUST N O T MOVE LEFT INSTEAD, THEN THE Ζ WOULD SEE HIM AND EXPLODE!   
AFTER Κ HAS MOVED UP, THE Β COMES INTO PLAY. IT HAS ENOUGH FREE SPACE TO FALL SIDEWAYS NOW AND CHANGE INTO "FALLING Β". THE Ζ IS SCANNED LAST, IT MOVES RIGHT.  
  
OOΒOΔ  
OOΖΔΔ  
ΔΔΔΔΔ  
  
THAT'S IT! Β AND Ζ ARE IN POSITION, AND THE Β NOW CRUSHES THE Ζ!  
  
THE OTHER CSO EFFECT IN THE CAVE IS A RATHER STANDARD ONE - IT'S THE WAY HOW Κ PASSES THE TOP-MID ΒΒΒ TO MOVE FROM THE RIGHT HALF INTO THE LEFT HALF. THIS METHOD COULD NOT BE MIRRORED.
