Between the Lines

Normal sudoku rules apply.
Digits on arrows sum to the number in the connected circle.
Digits in cells with a shaded square must be even.
Digits in cells with a shaded circle must be odd (note: there is an odd circle in r9c6).
Digits in cells separated by a black dot have a 1:2 ratio.

Whew, probably the best 60 minutes of this month. What a great puzzle, so cleverly constructed with the arrows disposition and so rewarding. Amazing stuff!

Very interesting and satisfying design. Definitely a case of a well-chosen title that helped me find the path

Lovely lovely puzzle. Took me a while to think about 9s. Perhaps starting would have been a lot quicker if I'd actually taken notice of the puzzle title for once!

Really nice break-in and solve path especially at the start :)

this was tough for me. had to solve it with bifurcation, then go back and solve it with logic.

This one made me sit back and stare at it for a while, deducing the logic before starting with the pencil marks, which is unusual for me. Incredibly enjoyable puzzle :D

Every I loved every single key deduction this puzzle had to offer. Thank you so much!

Wowie, very fancy setting that kept me engaged for a long while! It’s certainly on the harder side of your puzzles, but still very enjoyable nonetheless :)
(though my pencil marks got quite messy later on so it did take me quite a while to find some of the key logic)

Beautiful theme and a nice balance of deductions! But SKORP was faster than me
