All my series:
Equality Cages

Shifter Lines
Shifter Dots
Rules:
Normal Sudoku rules apply. Place the digits 1 through 9 in each empty cell. Digits must not repeat within the same row, column, or box.
Shifter lines: Adjacent digits within the same box on a shifter line share both parity (even/odd) AND polarity (low/high). Whenever the line enters a new box either the parity OR the polarity shifts, never both. Shifter lines can never have 5 on it. Digits may repeat on lines.
Thermometers: Digits along each thermometer must increase starting from the bulb end.

Shifter lines/dots are one of my favorites. I struggled to start a bit but the rest went very smoothly.

Very nice new ruleset. Took me a moment to get around the dynamics of it.
