Puzzlerium tour: Pentopia X

Pentopia X is a diagonal variant of Pentopia whose vision extends upto all of the eight directions.



Rules: Place some (or all) of the pentomino shapes, without repetitions (rotations and reflections are considered the same shape), and with rotations and reflections allowed. The shapes may not touch each other, not even diagonally. Arrows point in all of the eight possible directions (horizontal, vertical and diagonal) where pentomino segments are closest to that cell. 

About Pentopia X: Although the Pentopia X variant was (possibly) first explored by Anurag Sahay, Pentopia in its  original form was invented by Bram De Laat, who was probably inspired by a loop puzzle called Myopia.
