A while back, I was commissioned to write puzzles for Kakuro Conquest, thanks to my impressive haggling skills and talking the other person up from "hey, promote this site". I even promoted them in a volume of Grant's Review Corner, praising their solving interface for its simplicity. As much as I would love to see my puzzles playable in said interface, so far this hasn't happened. In a couple of weeks, if Kakuro Conquest shows no sign of life (including replying to the message I sent via their contact form), I will release the puzzles on this blog so they don't go to waste (and so this blog has something happening on it). The puzzle below is not one of those puzzles, but I do believe it's representative of the quality you can expect.
Edit: I have now reached out to Perfomant Design via Kakuro Conquest's contact form, the e-mail address on their site, and
their Twitter account, in the best good faith effort which I can muster
to give them a chance to stop me from using these puzzles without their
permission. I also reached out to Kareem Ahmed, who contacted me on
behalf on Performant in 2011 back when he worked closely with them, and
paid me to write the puzzles in the first place. If I am getting myself into hot water, I have at the very least done everything I can think of to test the temperature safely.
