What a cool puzzle from start to finish but also very tricky as well!
The opening idea was well telegraphed and the solve after that was wildly engaging till the very end, especially the part around that two cells arrow in box 6 (which also hurt my brain a bit there) :)

Delightful! This didn't feel like a typical Qodec puzzle in my opinion, but I think that just shows the range of what you can do. I loved it! A great addition to your portfolio :)

Gorgeous puzzle that continually rewards you stepping back and reassessing your position. That was not the solve path I expected when I started the puzzle.
