This post was originally about a different genre, but constructing puzzles in that type proved difficult, so I pivoted to a different type. As it turns out, this one is also difficult to construct. You know it, you love it or hate it, it's Bunnyhop! Invented by Hempuli, known for his hit game The Plumber Thing and literally nothing else.
Rules: Draw lines along the edges of cells to form a loop. Every line segment goes through a cell, connecting two corners located along the same edge. Every cell must be visited exactly once. The loop cannot branch off or cross itself. Black cells cannot be visited.
This first puzzle was an attempt to construct a puzzle with a visual theme. This ended up being way more difficult than anticipated, because I kept running into mysterious parity issues. For example, my attempts to use a domino or a tetromino theme both failed, yet for this puzzle my attempts with an odd (i.e. 7) number of triominos also kept failing. Oops.
Puzzle 384 (pzprxs) (EDIT: replaced with new puzzle.)
This second puzzle focuses ... not on logical theming, per se, but rather a certain thing happening.
