X-Sum little killer

(Published on 30. August 2020, 20:45 by Joseph nehme)

Rules: Normal Standard Sudoku rules apply. Additionally, Outlined regions are cages. The sum of digits in a cage is given in the top-left and digits cannot repeat. Digits on the thermometers increase in value from bulb end. Arrow clues outside the grid are NOT normal little killer clues. Instead, the number next to an arrow outside the grid indicates the sum of the X digits along the diagonal in the direction of the arrow Where X is the first number along the diagonal; Digits may repeat along these diagonals. This is my first try on creating a puzzle, I hope you like it. Your feedback and comments are highly appreciated :)

Ein schönes und sehr elegantes Rätsel! Wie durch Zauber wird man durch das Gitter geführt. Sehr angenehm. Nix mit min-max-Annahmen, wo alles 6789 sein kann. Okay, clues 22 und 27 brauchte ich auch nicht.
Sehr schön! Hat mir viel Spaß gemacht. Dankeschön! :-)

Hi guys. Thank you so much for these interesting point of views. Both points are correct. For this puzzle, i didn't know how hard it's gonna be that's why i decided to add a couple of clues just so that nobody gets stuck and give up. I took all your points and in my second puzzle that i created "pythagorean triples" i tried to create a new fun variant with minimal clues. I think you guys will enjoy it. I hope you can take a look at it and send me your feedback. Thanks guys. :)
