A (maybe) simple Hokuro puzzle

Question

Hokuro is a puzzle that was introduced to the Puzzling Stack Exchange on December 2nd, 2020 by sarsapilla as an entry for Fortnightly Topic Challenge #44: Introduce a new grid deduction genre to the community. It is a puzzle inspired by Kakuro, and it has similar rules.

Hokuro is a grid-deduction puzzle with the following rules:

• Each cell contains one of the following symbols:

• 

• Each arrow indicates a step in that direction, while the dot indicates no movement.

• The clues in the black cells show the sum of the movements indicated by the symbols in the corresponding row/column.

• Symbols in consecutive white cells must be unique (a 'sum' cannot contain the same symbol more than twice)

In some cases it might come in handy to sneak a peek at the Hokuro Cheat Sheet

The puzzle (which hopefully has a unique solution):

_{Please give feedback as this is my first Hokuro puzzle that I've ever made}

Answer 1

Step 1

I placed dots in single cells clued by no movement.

Step 2

I placed arrow in single cells clued by an arrow.

Step 3

Now after doing step 1 and 2, we can make some pretty straight forward deductions by first looking at the two clues marked in red, helping us filling in these red cells

Step 4

If we first focus on the clue marked in yellow, we can fill in these yellow cells.

Step 5

If we first focus on the clue marked in grey, we can fill in these grey cells.

Step 6

If we focus on the clue marked in blue, we see that one of the two cells marked in blue has to be a left arrow and one of them an up-left arrow.





If the top blue cell contain a left arrow then we'll reach a contradiction on this clue (where the blue arrow is pointing).





This means the top blue cell must contain an up-left arrow and the bottom blue cell must contain a left arrow. And the rest of the blue cells can be filled.

Step 7

To fill in these last bottom left 5 cells (marked in gold), I don' think there is a unique solution, but one arrangement that works is this:
