Kakuro
I felt I was on a roll with maths puzzles so I made another one, this time its kakuro. The game creates a random kakuro puzzle that has at least one way of being completed. When an answer is correct, the clue number will turn green and when all your answers are correct, you have completed the puzzle. After finishing, to see the computer's answers press the escape key. Press escape again to fully exit. If you try to enter an invalid number, the number will be rejected. If you want to delete a previously added number, right click the square.

Please let me know if you find bugs, and let me know what you think of this

Setup
-Set the seed to anything, it helps make games more random.
-Set columns and rows to anything, I advise not to go above 9 by 9.
-Set percentage of squares that are clues. By clue, I mean the black squares that tell you the total your answer has to be.

Looks good. Just one problem - you can put the same number in the same row (or column) twice. That's against the rules of Kakuro.

I've fixed the problem and reuploaded the corrected version. Invalid numbers are rejected and you can right click a previously entered number to delete it.

[edit] Just noticed a crashing issue, I have fixed that too.
