Shot Through The Dot
Just joined the site and am enjoying it very much. I haven't seen a puzzle quite like this, so I thought I would experiment with the resultant logic.
1. Normal Sudoku rules apply.
2. Digits along each arrow must sum to the digit in the circled cell. Digits may repeat along an arrow if permitted by other rules.
3. Black dots between cells indicate cell values have a 2:1 ratio. Not all dots are shown.
This is my first attempt at setting a puzzle. Constructive criticism is appreciated. Enjoy!
Solution code: Enter the bottom row of digits with no spaces.

Seemed intimidating at first, but it came together well.

Almost skipped this one. First impression was that it was beyond my beginner skill level. But it turned out to have a very nice solve path. Maybe not GAS, but not too much more difficult. Thank you for the fun puzzle.

You made my dislike of arrows less severe by adding kropki. Thank you!

Cool :)
I’d recommend removing the white dots rule from the puzzles themselves, as it is, of course, redundant. Feel free to edit this out after it’s changed if you like ;)
