I spent about half my solve time re-checking which one was which lol. Really fun puzzle.

I loved this ruleset and solving your puzzle, as usual!

Wow, a bit of a brain burner! Took me a while to wrap my head around the interactions between circles in close proximity. Got there in the end though. (Sudoku to the rescue!)
>> Thank you for the solve and the kind comment! We had a lot of fun (and backtracking) while setting this one as well.

Had to check the rules about 80 times during this solve but a very fun premise! Beautiful interactions the whole way through!
>> Thank you so much for the kind comment! This one was a bit of a headbreaker to set as well!

Great puzzle! The logic takes a bit to keep straight, had to back up a couple different times getting the high and lows backwards.
>> Thank you so much for the kind comment; we had a lot of fun setting this one and are looking forward to playing more with this constraint.
