🚨 ATTENTION! ATTENTION! THIS PUZZLE HAS VARIANT RULES THAT THE ANSWER CHECKER WON'T CHECK🚨

We have covered a lot of genres and rulesets in this channel, over 130 at this point 😲! However, some of my favourite genres were originally done by other setters. There haven't been a whole lot of repeats by percentage, and sometimes you want to set some of the wonderful genres that have come up before. It's also nice to keep things fresh, you know? That's why I really like variants! Well, I know I've done several variants lately, and I think my variant kick will be coming to a close with this one, at least for now 😉 . Don't worry, I'll be delivering brand new genres soon enough for y'all!

Today's GAPP is an Antiknight Akari!

Rules: Place lights in some cells so that every cell is illuminated. Lights illuminate the cell they’re in as well as all cells seen in a straight line horizontally or vertically, not obstructed by a black cell. Lights may not illuminate each other. Clues represent the number of lights in the cells orthogonally adjacent to it.

Variant: Lights cannot be a knight's move apart from other lights (two spaces over, 1 space perpendicular)

Pro Tip: Marking cells where lights can't go is especially important, and keep antiknight implications in mind when doing so.
