I don't feel like i ever will be trying Zero stage seriously at this point, so i will just drop my thoughts on this game
Every stage from Luckyman to Takuya you can easily skip. Really faded, really unfun for the most part. Some creative visuals was here and there, some interesting saves occasionaly, but overall it's just forgettable. Also R stage was probably my favourite from this bunch, but it was very bruh sometimes, Choco stage lasts too long which heavily reduce fun, Takuya probably did best job at making something memorable, but i didn't find his stage good at any point
Tomo stage was fresh after all of this. I would call his stage pretty good, but one save at screen 2 ruins whole experience for me. Platform grab that depends on your v-string, just no. Simply no, and it didn't help that this save was hardest anyway. If not the existense of this save will even probably recommend
Sirokano stage was god-tier vine-based needle. If you like vines, play it. Every save feels unique and introduces very cool and smart maneuvers. Last save was kinda bitch, because of one specific jump at the first half, but unlike Tomo, the needle in this stage is just too slapping, so even last save issue didn't ruined it. Second best stage in collab, absolutely loveable
Normal stage was quite intense, it has pretty interesting style where saves are not that long to be consistent-based, but they are also not short to be fully precision-based. It's just something in-between and it works out pretty well. I would say it has potential for me to outstand Sirokano, but last two saves were too harsh in comparison to previos ones, and they were crucially harsh, that's what i mean. So yeah, ending was kinda spoiled, i still find this largely fun
FrozenAge stage... can be described in many words. I will tell those ones: this stage is one of the most beautiful pieces of needle i've ever seen. It has fantastic driving and energetic atmosphere where visuals and music forming astonishing confluence and you just never get tired of this. It has saves that are fits this atmosphere completely. Most of the saves are precise ones, with big focus on 8px grid, v-strings, squished formations, and let me tell you - all of them was highly interesting, fun to explore, fun to finding strats and of course very fun to execute. You can't crave more from precision needle tbh, this was truly adventure for me to beat this stage and i without doubt can tell that i like it entirely and it will be always one of the best precision needle for me that actually come very close to being strong 10/10
Zero stage sucks. It has great ideas, especially when it's about collecting stuff through the screen, but maker decided to set difficulty to extreme bar, both in terms of precision and constistency, which is really unhealthy mix, considering main gimmick of this stage is fucking catharsis water, that gives you no right to mistake. Imo, this is big middlefinger to everyone who play this game and big disgrace to collab itself, since rest of the makers did not make their stages that hard. If you can stomach 90+ difficulty stuff and jumps that are more fits awfully designed L-games with classic L tileset, well it might be your halt, otherwise didn't recommend. I doubt i will bother myself to actually play this at anytime
Overall, this collab was pretty mixed bag, but it didn't let me exit unconcerned, that's for sure
