Big thanks to everyone who tried my debut puzzle during the past few days, Tree of Oddities. I could not have wished for it to get anywhere near as popular as it turned out to be. That helped inspire me to make this new puzzle, which I hope people enjoy as well. I feel like 2 stars is a fair assessment of the difficulty, but it could very well be that people find it easier than I did. :)
Normal sudoku rules apply.
Digits within a coloured tetromino do not repeat and sum to a total that must be determined. This total is the same for all tetrominos; colours are purely decorational. Orthogonally adjacent digits within the same tetromino differ by at least 4.
Digits in the white circles must appear in the four surrounding cells.Solution code: Digits in row 4, from left to right

That was a fun challenge. I'd call it 3 stars because it took a lot of bouncing around the cages to pin down the common sum.

Thank you for the feedback! I thought the common sum could be narrowed down pretty quickly but it is admittedly a lot easier if you know where to look. :)
