Shade Some More Sum Lines
(Published on 23. August 2023, 07:51 by Xendari)
This is a sequel using the same ruleset as Shade Your Own Sum Lines, except a few new shapes found their way onto the grid! Happy solving :)
Rules
Sudoku: Normal sudoku rules apply.
Shading: Shade some cells in the grid such that all shaded cells are orthogonally connected. Within each box, orthogonally connected groups of shaded cells must sum to N, where N is the same for all boxes. Orthogonally connected groups of shaded cells within the same box sum to N individually.
Circles can be shaded or unshaded, and the digit in a circle is the number of shaded cells in its box.
Squares are shaded, and the digit in a square is the number of shaded cells seen in all directions combined from that cell (including itself), where unshaded cells block vision.
Diamonds are unshaded, and the digit in a diamond is the size of the orthogonally connected group of unshaded cells that it belongs to.

It was a great pleasure to test solve this puzzle earlier! A very fun and beautiful solve, particularly enjoyed the parts around box 4 and box 5 :)
