Play in Sudokupad
Leave one cell in every row, column, and box empty. These are the missing digits. Cells with clues (Lines, arrows, etc.) must not be empty.
Fill the remaining eight cells in every row, column, and box with some of the digits 1-9. Digits may not repeat in a row, column, or box. Each box will have a different digit missing.
Counting Circles: A digit in a circle indicates the number of circles which contain that digit.
Arrows: The digit in a circle also equals the sum of the digits on the attached arrow. Digits may repeat on an arrow.
German Whisper: Adjacent digits along a green line have a difference of five or more.
Nabner lines. Digits along a gold line may not repeat or be consecutive with any other digit on the line.
Sequence lines: Along gray lines, digits form a valid sequence (a number N added to each cell sums to the next cell). Different lines may have a different number N.
The digit in the gray square is even.
Note: for the solution check to work, place a 0 in every empty cell.
Solution code: Column 8 top to bottom, including the 0

Bonkers and quite tricky but still a very lovely puzzle. I made some incorrect assumptions early on and had to restart but then it went pretty smoothly. Thanks!

Brilliant and totally mad puzzle! So easy to make a mistake when you do not oversee the consequences of the ruleset. Thank you
