How does this even work? - Odd/Even Killer sudoku

(Published on 28. May 2024, 20:45 by Mr.Menace)

When I was just a little Menace, I set a number of puzzles using the odd/even killer rules. Even though I will probably never come close to those puzzles anymore, I have made a new one.
It may be hard, it may be tough, but I hope it is enjoyable.

Rules
- Normal sudoku rules apply.
- Digits in cages may not repeat and sum to the cage total. Digits of the cage total indicate the number of odd and even digits, in any given order. (e.g. a cage summing to 32 will contain 2 odd and 3 even digits).
- Cells with grey squares contain even digits.
- Cells with grey circles contain odd digits.
