Acknowledgements and Changes
2024-06-06 When making the panels for Tally Loop, genre author Endagorion decided to write a solver to support this process, a strategy that worked extremely well!
2024-06-07 The missing constraint "every segment requires a number", detected by Endagorion, was added. The panels and were further clarified to leave no room for ambiguity (Anurag Sahay). Conversely, the variant number-optional
was added, to allow segments without numbers.
2024-06-07 Thanks to PinkHoodie for sending a rollout puzzle, and to justkirb for noticing a non-uniqueness in the tiny example puzzle.
2024-06-07 Many thanks to Endagorion for transcribing the original puzzles, for feedback on the implementation that let to improved contrast and highlighting.
2024-06-07 Together, PinkHoodie and Anurag Sahay sent 1 classic plus 2 puzzles using variant number-optional
