Inspired by ICHTUES's "American Cities" series and other single-diagonal killer sudoku, I wanted to explore how a diagonal would affect a similar ruleseet, Equal Sum Lines. I think I managed to fit some fun logic into the end result, and I hope you enjoy it!
Rules
Normal sudoku rules apply. Digits cannot repeat on the marked diagonal. Digits on a blue line sum to the same total in each box it passes through.
Solution code: Column 8, followed by Row 8

I have never played the game, but my grid did look as colorful as a Pokemon card in the end ! Too bad Sudokupad doesn't have an hologram coloring option... Some deductions were very hard to find in the midsolve for me. Thanks :)

Brilliant coloring puzzle, one of the bests of its kind. If it wasn't for the letter tool in SudokuPad, this would've been borderline unsolvable.

Everything about this puzzle is so beautiful - it's been a while since I've been so deeply impressed and captivated by a puzzle's deductions. This has everything I love about arithmetic-based sudoku and more. Thank you so much for setting and sharing :)
