In the mood for another genre with Look-Air's famous rule in effect? Well here you go: A Circles and Squares (Look-Air)! 🟩 🟩

Rules: Shade some cells so that all shaded cells form one orthogonally connected area and each orthogonally connected area of unshaded cells is in the shape of a square. Cells with black circles must be shaded, and cells with white circles must not be shaded. No 2x2 region may be entirely shaded. Two unshaded squares of the same size may not have a vertical or horizontal line of shaded cells between them, unobstructed by a differently sized square.
