Moved to graveyard:
Oops! I'm really sorry! Guess I didn't test carefully enough. New version coming soon...

heee, nice. Of course, this embedding hard-codes the solution rather than checking it by some mechanism. (I wish I had a name to describe such embeddings--maybe "extrinsic"?) The particular way it's encoded makes it easy to solve by looking at the alternate layer. Nonetheless, Kudos for your courage!

By the way, it's pretty clear that an "intrinsic" 9-digit su doku (with checking mechanism) would not fit in the regular board size, since even this one basically maxes it out. How do people feel about increasing the board size? Are editors running into size limitations frequently? I'm not sure what I think...

'Japanese Escape!' uploaded by SPAM:
My desperate try to make a working 9*9 sudoku. It works, but it probably doesn't look that good and is hard to understand. Other disadvantages are that it needs a huge board and that it only works for one solution (but that's not too bad, because there's ussually only one solution ;)).
The puzzle itself is self-made, not taken from any book. It shouldn't be too hard for practised sudoku solvers (maybe I'll make a hard one soon).
Hope you'll enjoy it!
