Man, hacking new puzzle types into the image generator is an amazing way to procrastinate.

Hey, a “theme” (look at the corners)!

Honestly though I’m just spreading out my puzzle posts so there’s some illusion of regularity.

It’s 2/22 and I have low standards.

This is a normal Slitherlink, except all the 2s have been given to you. Thus, empty squares cannot have exactly two edges around them. Of course it’s been done before (guess who?)

I appear to be drastically overshooting a monthly schedule :P

Not actually my first try, but I guess I don’t need to resort to 6x6s to fill up my quota just yet, do I?

Okay for the absolutely uninformed, this is a Fillomino (or see MellowMelon’s rule page).

I’ve switched to 32x32 pixel cells because they seem a reasonable size and it’s possible to express all pixel sizes as an exact floating-point fraction of the cell side so my image generator can be used in a general way to get perfect stroke thicknesses without worrying about any rounding errors no matter how obviously numerically insignificant they would be in this case.

One puzzle a month! What a prolific schedule!

A Liar Slitherlink as created by MellowMelon (probably). Normal Slitherlink rules except exactly one clue in each row and column is false; you figure out which. But I bet you knew that already.

I was like “Let’s make a 15x15!” and got confused by the graph lines and stopped early. Anyway, I think the steps aren’t so trivial now. I’m still too lazy to fix my generator, however.

I only just managed to make a 10x10 that’s not broken.
