This implementation uses ripple-shaped rings, so that they are also recognised when included as varint symbols.

## Acknowledgements and Changes
**2024-01-10** The global ´´ripple-loop´´ variant was added at the same time as the genre was published; and the first puzzle, by @PinkHoodie, was listed!
**2024-01-11** Clarified that a crossing counts as two separate straight lines for adjacency purposes with ripple, and corrected the conflict checker (@PinkHoodie). New puzzle. Extended the variant to work with corner-centered genres such as Crosswall.
**2024-01-14** @AnuragSahay, Ripple Loop's author, shared a tough puzzle!
**2024-04-05** A second classic [ripple-loop] by @PinkHoodie was crafted. Thank you!
**2024-05-24** @PinkHoodie included this genre in a [puzzle series themed after the 26 letters of the alphabet|../puzzletters/2024-05-24]!
**2025-03-29** :::puzzletters @5381 fashioned 1 [ripple-loop] puzzle using variant ´´full-optional´´ (corrected by @AnuragSahay - thank you)
**2025-04-13** :::puzzletters @PinkHoodie fashioned 2 [ripple-loop] (classic) puzzles - hat tip!
**2025-04-27** :::puzzletters @PinkHoodie set another [ripple-loop] (classic) puzzle - धन्यवाद!
