Superb !
My head is spinning, but I am not sure if it is spinning clockwiqe or anticlockwise...
As other solvers, understanding correctly how blackened cells and the rotating clues worked took me some time. Easy to make some counting errors with the skyscraper clues, but so nice when see it all falls into place. A wonderful gift !
Thanks :)

A small clarification please. Can the digits repeat in a row or column?

@Nensche777: No, they may not.

May the black non-pentomino cells be orthogonally connected to black pentomino-cells?

My brain is dead, thank you. Why in the world would you have rotating clues, you suck. :P

Wow, that looks great, thanks already! Now I'm curious whether I'm up to the task of rotating clockwise - a great challenge for a real maniac ;-)

@Luigi: The clues are pentopia clues, they indicate the direction of the nearest pentominos; the clues, nor the digits placed on the clue digits, do not say anything about the distance to those pentominos. For example, if Row 3 Column 5 was a '2', then the nearest pentomino in the four cardinal directions (up, down, left, and right) would be left.
Likewise, if that same cell was a '3', then the nearest pentomino in the four diagonal directions would be in the northwest direction. I hope this helps!
