I tried to avoid using symmetry, but in the end I took the path of least resistance. I'm sure an argument could be made for deep lookahead.

Cute li'l guy, and it's one of the 5 or so I know. :)

I agree, there was a point towards the end where I used "picture logic" to finish it. Pretty fun solve up to that point.

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by gator.

After color/line logic, EL makes R3C19 a dot. Lots of LL.

EL in R15 makes R15C14-15 dots. LL.

Smile logic in R14-15 to finish those out.

No matter how you fill in C12, R6C11 will be a dot and R7C11 will be black. LL to finish.

Nice puzzle!

Requires smile logic twice. Not much more lookahead besides that.

Cute, but tough. I did guess twice.
#7: David Bouldin (dbouldin) on Mar 27, 2021 [HINT]
i solved just like gator but instead of true smile logic (which it completely is), i did both of those as two-way logic to get a dot from one side. fun solve!
