Really fun adventure game with Wonderful's renowned style. The first half of the game is awesome, being structured like a metroidvania where you gain new abilities. The platforming is fun, the explorative feel is great, and the bosses are quick and cute. The second half unfortunately is a bit worse. The platforming is still awesome, but the bosses suffer, and the metroidvania aspect is removed. The left boss is cool, it just has a bit too much health imo. The bottom boss is the easiest, and also really boring since it only has one attack. The right boss is the real stinker, it's a big kid fight with weird momentum water physics. Aside from being long and repetitive like all big kid fights, the water physics are super awkward and hard to get a handle on. The final boss is really cool, although the second part is a bit too precise. The final phase is epic though. Overall, this is a great game oozing with charm and nostalgia, and the awkwardness of some bosses isn't enough to detract from that.

First fangame I fully completed (due to being so short), mostly inexperienced (but not beginner) in needle.
The level design, while "repetitive" due to the fact it's just spikes and blocks and nothing else, managed to consistently remain interesting and appealing thanks to clever designing, with constant difficulty all throughout (except for, like, 2 jumps). A lot of the fun came from trying to figure out the next path to take in what is a visually "cluttered" but cleverly designed game - which i find to be really cool.
A lot of my problems come from the fact the coloring is *always* the same (space purple) which gets soooooo visually boring - going through the colors of the rainbow as level progresses would add so so so much more appeal to the game which gets even further worsened by the fact the music is absolutely terrible - it's supposed to be some chill, gentle mood which just didn't fit at all. I think I would have given the game 7.5 if not for those flaws.
it sounds like nitpicking - but it genuinely is noticeable and annoying after a bit of playing. It did however work very well for stimming while talking with others in voice call, when i wasn't particularly focusing on it (since i really didn't want to, the colour palette is *really* boring to look at)

A really old ?lost? adventure game that stands out for it's length and use of unique visuals. It has a hub and 3 stages each with bosses and unique gimmicks/styles. In many places the traps are very overused at the end of pretty much every save, however the platforming is still better than many old games. The bosses are all pretty standard no-iframe mash fests that are decidedly not great. Final boss is funny. Worth a play if you are a big fan of the old style of adventure fangames, however it is quite frustrating to figure out what you need to do in some places.

Really fun classic adventure. The game has several stages, each of which felt unique and interesting. Several places make use of backtracking, with parts of the stage changing to allow you to take a new path, which is really cool. The traps are pretty varied, and mostly funny, although there are of course some generic flying spikes. The platforming is fun, using various gimmicks well to create solid jump and screens that are fun to do. The bosses are great, although the difficulty of them is kind of scattered, the first boss was one of the hardest. I really like the boss with the gimmick where you have to stand on the right colors. The final stage is cool, and brings back each of the other bosses as minibosses or traps, which does a good job of making it feel like an epic finale. The final boss is a bit RNG heavy, and it probably could've benefited from one more attack, but it was still fun. One minor complaint is that it's rather anticlimactic, the boss just disappears and leaves a warp to the clear screen. Even a simple death animation would add a lot. Overall, this is a solid recommendation for adventure fans. It doesn't push the envelope very far, but it does the basic stuff really well.

Chrisay and Hosungryn stages are sudoku-ish. They could have been funnier.

Needle exists, it isn't very easy though.
There's one attack that ruins the whole avoidance and its difficulty balance, I still liked how every attack has no instagibs. Not recommended though.
