There's also this approach to the one-sided aspect of this task:

http://www.janko.at/Retros/d.php?ff=rnbqkbBr/Rpppp1pp/P3R1q1/K6Q/1P1P4/4BN2/2P4P/3N4

SPG-22.0 (C-)

Intended solution:

1 d4 f5  2 Kd2 f4  3 Kc3 f3  4 Kb4 fxe2  5 Nc3 e1Q
6 Bc4 Qxf2  7 Bxg8 Qxg2  8 Qh5+ Qg6  9 Nc3 Qf7  10 Re1 Qg6
11 Re4  12 Be3  13 Rd1  14 Rd3  15 Nd1  16 Ra3  17 Rxa7
18 a4  19 a5  20 a6  21 Ka5 Qf7 (still no Nc6+?)  22 b5 Qg6


Even if this particular attempt is cooked, there seems to be
considerable scope for variation (including promoting to
B instead of Q, and/or switching White/Black roles).
