For: I wanna erase a shimmer of hot air
Seemingly the first game that was published on Japanese wiki under the nickname 'LIPCONE' back in the beginning of 2012, and which marks kind of the beginning of the late period of LIPCONE's / ☆阪神☆'s. The game was made on LIPCONE's engine, and seemingly feels like a test game on its own. Also this game was thought to be lost for like a decade.

The game features 3 distinct sections - difficulty choice screen ; 1 screen of needle and 1 avoidance. That is it.

Difficulty choice screen makes as its own section since the medium difficulty is at the very top. And you need to get through several Half diamond jumps, until you get to the top and... you die, because of the trap. But wait! The trap is not there, even though you get back to the beginning. As you proceed you will find more traps, and after some time you won't need to go through all of those Diamond jumps, since traps will clear the way. It was clever idea for sure! I have cleared this game first time in 2022, and I completely forgot it when I was replaying it now in 2025. And it was pretty fun little thing.

The needle screen is a bit generic with restarting guy rock song. You have some traps (including gate jump which seems as if goes to secret way but is actually just a trap), and generic jumps. There is abundance of saves which makes most of the saves easy though. Corner jump might be a bit weird, but just take a good align. Penultimate needle save features an invert jump, but actually the spike down does not kill you. But you will get a trap after that.

However, you do have to do that semi double invert (although it is faced in the way so that you have to do just an invert, basically). I was initially confused why this thing was here, but author does explain this in 'Readme', and after reading it, it was quite a funny little detail. Gonna mention that in the end of this review. But anyway, this jump is the hardest part of this game lol.

Then you have avoidance that was later re-used in 'I wanna RE : The Avoidance' (since author deemed this avoidance to be one of his best). It is a pretty OK avoidance of the time. Pretty much what you expect from this author, except it is luckily not very hard and won't get on your nerves. There is not much going, since you have your standard aimings and fruit bursts, but there are few interesting things happening, that all are lyric-based. The song here is カゲロウデイズ (Kagerou Daze) (https://vocaloid.fandom.com/wiki/%E3%82%AB%E3%82%B2%E3%83%AD%E3%82%A6%E3%83%87%E3%82%A4%E3%82%BA_(Kagerou_Daze)). You have references to the sky ; to the black cat ; to the truck ; to the blood, and maybe even to the fact that everything is repeating? Haven't looked much into it, but there are few references. However, there is an issue. 'I wanna be the Producer' by boto was released literally after less than a week after this game's release. And that one actually makes really interesting interpretation of lyrics. The gameplay does not help much either, since the only interesting thing is the Black cat thing, but it is literally aiming, so... Yeah, also you can easily die on the very last fruit splash, which is an instagib. That sucks as well. Oh, and also the black bars? That is an interesting effect, but bullets can still kill you. Red background? Interesting and fitting to the lyrics, but red on red is hard to read, so that is also not good.

As it stands, the avoidance is OK, and that is it. It is far from being excellent or anything.

So this whole game has a weird energy on itself. However, the thing I found interesting are Meta things of this game.

In 'Readme' author does mention Mr 白いヒヨコ, since the semi invert was used in some Private game of LIPCONE, and 白いヒヨコ played it on Niconico, and they kind of named after the person or something like that. I thought maybe '新エンジンで作ったちくちくゲー' was the reference game, but it seems like it is not the case since that game was made in late January 2012, I guess? Also, it is interesting to me that LIPCONE mentions that game uses Invert jump that is called 'Natto' in Japanese. He mentions that the name comes from apparently the game called 'I wanna be the 納豆', although he was not sure. It is interesting that already back in 2012 people kind of forgot the origin or not everyone were aware of it? The origin is 'I wanna be the なっとう' (different spelling) by オーオオ.

As for 白いヒヨコ, it is interesting how they played this game after the release, and they were genuine saying that game was quite bad (even for standards back then). It kind of feels like the whole game was probably made for some people to try it out, probably maybe even for 白いヒヨコ, since the usage of the jump this person would recognize. If that is true, then that is kind of wholesome, in my opinion.

Oh, yeah, also this Readme mentions all characters from the game, and some quotes are just way too funny. Just few examples (translated with DeepL):

a) Black cat.
A black cat. A small animal that meows.
Often kept as a pet.

b) Traffic light
An accident prevention system created by human beings.
Blue means go ahead, red means stop. Not sure why yellow means be careful or stop in different places.
Very useful, but I don't feel that there are too many in places that don't really need them.

c) Trucks.
A human vehicle. They are mainly used to transport things.


Here is the original Readme (there are 2 but the other one is more about general info about the game), if someone is curious:

Anyway, here are my ratings for this whole game:

a) Difficulty screen:
Rating: 5.2
Difficulty: 33

b) Needle:
Rating: 4.7
Difficulty: 42 (or whatever is the difficulty of an invert)

c) Avoidance:
Rating: 5.4
Difficulty: 27


I liked the idea of the difficulty screen ; I was just fine with the Needle (I do not like the idea of an Invert though), although I liked few ideas ; and avoidance surprisingly is the best part of the game, but obviously not like too great or anything.

There is some charm in such an old project, and while I cannot objectively recommend this, I did not find this game annoying and I did not mind to spend some time in it. If you do not mind an Invert jump or an easy-ish avoidance, and if you like this kind of old aesthetic, then maybe you can try it out, presuming you have the game. It is probably gonna be an experience for 20 minutes max for an average player.

P.S. I am still not sure why this game is called like this lol.

The kid has been challenged by the LoveTrap stickman again! this time he's got to show he got rhythm AND the ability to perform the uncanny difficulty jumps!

This one is actually really really fun! it's nothing more than a stress test and an endurance "fight", but i still god a lot of enjoyment out of it!
I have no idea how this was rated so high in diff, just keep calm and a have a little sense of rhythm.
