A great needle collab with a climactic final stage and a climactic final save. I think most areas are either good or great, but plasma's stage really knocks it out of the park for me.

Excluding the ever so prestigious 1jump collab for obvious reasons, this is such a good first game from a new maker. It hit a lot of good marks, marks that took me 2-3 years to start hitting myself. But, it is a first game, and with that does come some issues.
The main thing, that has already been mentioned here, is the balancing. I didn't mind it so much and it makes for a pretty relaxing experience, but it s all over the place. Not in the sense that there's stuff that's randomly hard, in fact it's the opposite: there's a handful of saves that are just 1 jump that I feel probably would have been better off being incorporated into other segments instead. An additional issue that arises I found is that occasionally you can skip a jump by saving early. There are also two instances where a minispike is placed on the save, and due to the way the visuals are I didn't see and died; it's an easy game so I didn't mind but it is a thing. I do feel though, kind of as a consideration for something in the future: the save balancing would be cool if it were executed the same way XIFT did it, where you can't see the saves. I feel the almost unpredictability would do well for such an idea, probably better than XIFT did it as that game does get predictable in its placements.
The last main issue I found with the game was with the spotlight. Overall, I will say I liked it--it solves the issue of generally not being able to find where the player starts when changing screens in needle of this style. There are a handful of segments though where you do have to go into a jump blind. Just a small nitpick
The music is quite good, especially for being self-made. I do feel there's a bit of room to grow from that, as the first song of the game did get a little same-y after a while, and this was primarily an issue of the percussion not changing at all through the song (an issue that doesn't exist with the second song of the game). The songs also end a bit abruptly I felt.
Overall, an excellent initial foray into the realm of needle. I look forward to your future works.

Reasonably fun needle game somewhat based around lower frame jumps and tight maneuvers. Most of it is good, however a few jumps got on my nerves and at times it felt like the precision of some bits did not really serve the save well. That said, the game has pretty nice vibes thanks to the good song and the needle is generally fairly peaceful, so I still liked it.

Nice storytelling game without having to do any playing or headaches. Good music and the graphics are appeasing to the eyes. Worth a few minutes to check out.
