I mostly tried to use long cuts to get as many objects at possible, focusing on trying to get as many different sizes as I could so I could do any objective that appeared. The objectives where tricky though, I usually had too many pieces on the board blocking my way to the objective OR the number was too high. I went for the objectives whenever they felt achievable within 2 cuts. My closest run I had ~300 floofs left

Makes sense, thanks for sharing! If you feel like trying again, we treated the corner objectives like actually *the* main way to play the game, and felt in hindsight like our tutorial could have stressed that better--so you may have more luck trying to score on nearly every cut or get to scoring next. Those corner scores also give you a cut back, removing plenty of the pressure. Either way, thanks for playing!
thanks for the tip, i managed to win with 5 cuts left :)
i think the reason i de-prioritised the objectives was because they're often impossible. like when the objective is the same size as your biggest floof. as far as i know, there’s no way to move a floof without splitting it, so the only way to achieve the objective is to re-combine or get rid of everyone of that size so it gets rerolled.
