I was thinking about a previous puzzle,Entropic Triangles, and wondering how I can make use of a similar geometry to a different effect, and that's how this puzzle was born. Hope you enjoy it!

Very nice geometry to the solve. Also quite pretty if you do it as a coloring puzzle.

A quick lovely morning snack. Love vx and modular anyway. 13 minutes for me. Thank you!

Once you get the colouring right, the puzzle solves itself due to the constraints. A beautifully constructed puzzle. Might be a bit difficult for beginners, though.

Beautiful coloring puzzle. It really did fall apart from the cleverly placed constraints

I’m tempted to rate that at a 2 star for difficulty, but I still finished in under half an hour. Certainly wouldn’t be easy for someone new to these puzzles.
Enjoyable regardless, thanks.
