Couple of annoying segments but overall was pretty fun. Spent WAY too long on last save (partially my fault for using a shit strat tho OpieOP). Really good and chill atmosphere. Good for advanced noodlers.

I need to get a better keyboard.

Extremely difficult, but amazingly produced needle game. Aside from a few saves/jumps, the game effectively challenged my "needle IQ" while remaining fun all the way through. Granted, this game is over my skill level so I spent considerably longer trying to beat it, but no matter how long it takes, it's a journey I'd recommend to any veteran needle player looking for something unique to play.

Platforming:

Extremely difficult. It doesn't contain your conventional jumps (corners, planes, whatever else people consider hard) so its uniqueness is something most players will notice immediately. The first screen starts off with a bang and the difficulty curve does sway a bit from save to save (or screen to screen), but its overall difficulty doesn't; nothing felt too easy or excruciatingly hard. Apart from a water hourglass jump after a 16 px drop and other saves I've honestly forgotten about (I have terrible memory, you'll have to experience it for yourself), this game was nothing short of perfect.

Avoidance:

None.

Aesthetic:

Kreygasm !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(Amazing music, very calming. Felt like I was playing needle in a LoZ temple. Tileset is godlike, if I knew how to I'd try to make it my Jtool skin. Played well, no complaints).

Overall rating:

If you love needle and want a enormous challenge/are seasoned in needle and wish to chill with something unique and difficult, I would highly recommend this. If you're more of a novice/intermediate player when it comes to needle and don't have the patience to grind it, play some easier games and come back to this later, maybe even take it save by save. Otherwise, stay away unless you feel confident about your skills. Nonetheless, this is a beautiful game that I wholeheartedly enjoyed. Keep it up Inferno!

This game is the progenitor of the phonotransmitter, a foundation builder, unrealized ideas and something supposedly worse than the phototransmitter that came out later, according to the same infernoman.
For me personally, this game is wonderful. Honestly, I wouldn’t compare them, because they offer different things. Since we are talking about phonotaxis and we are here, phonotaxis is a game with a great background soundtrack and a pleasant sky background. Immediately when you load the game, this The soundtrack greets you in combination with an excellent screensaver in spacious meadows with views of the mountains and heavens. It will accompany you throughout the entire game. The game is purely an igloo with water and platforms, very precise, tough, offering a lot of interesting jumps. There is a certain sustained difficulty, somewhere it will be a little easier, somewhere a little more difficult. I personally got stuck on the 3rd screen from the end in the first save to for example. At the same time, the last screen seemed quite simple to me, but to many, in turn, it was complicated, which speaks of approximate consistency and personal preferences.
In general, the game is very precise, atmospheric and of high quality. I liked it. The only unpleasant at the end of the game forced ejection from the game creates a feeling of being cut off and some kind of dissatisfaction

The last save is just L-needle. Also, force-closing the game on the clear screen is really dumb. The rest of it is pretty good.
