    What an exercise in restraint (and I admire the "cheat" in 1D, craftier indeed to re-turn)! I'm impressed that most of these have sensible surfaces, even when they're comically absurd ("Owl's Law" in 2D). The only one I didn't love was 3D, though I'm impressed with the wordplay of "rolls dry" there—and again, you had MAJOR constraints to deal with!

      Impressive! Excellent clues, and a ton of fun to solve.

        Thank you, glad you enjoyed! I also had a lot of fun setting this one.

        Loved it! Not sure about verb tense for the indicator in 5D ("struggling" would be better, I think); otherwise a very good puzzle :D

          Also just noticed the title! Amazing work within a tight constraint
