Takes a moment to get the logic, but had a lot of fun doing this one!

Much easier than I thought reading through the rules, but fun nontheless.

Every time a setter succeeds in making a completely symmetrical puzzle, an angel gets its wings.

Such a fun puzzle.
I don't know what it was, but I've never had to start over this many times as I made a mistake after mistake somewhere.
There was one devious line that I blame for couple of the restarts though.

Fun break in, smooth flow throughout! Really nice construction to be able to use full rotational symmetry in the given lines!

A lite treat of a snack of puzzle. Perfect for 10-20 min run!

Easy puzzle, but fun as always. I really hope you're going to publish all of your puzzles in a book, I would definitely buy it. Had so much fun with every puzzle so far (especially with the Rat run series). They are really book-worthy!

It is so hard to make a puzzle this approachable and also this beautiful. Well done Marty and thanks for sharing!

Very enjoyable puzzle! Thank you, marty_sears!

Surely one of the best DFM ever! And the red 5 in the center tops the beautiful setting - absolutely amazing. Thank you so much for creating and sharing.

Lovely flow, thank you for the puzzle!

Beautiful symmetry and lovely flow to this one, really showcasing the DFM rule!
