Absolutely adore this game, the gameplay is pristine and there are no unfun saves. The only reason why this isn't a 10 is because of wacky difficulty balancing. Near perfect needle, would heavily recommend.

Fun gimmick needle with 5 stages. The rooms never get too overwhelming but are also designed in such a way that makes the platforming precise and fun to play for the most part. It does get worse as it goes along, definitely dipping at the 5th stage, but the rest make for an extremely fun time!

I truly, genuinely, and honestly cannot find a single thing this game does better than any other game like it. The first 100 floors are practically walking simulators, the next 75 barely have anything worth playing outside of cycle-based gameplay (aka waiting), and just when you think you're close to finishing this slog of a game, it throws 25 long cross-room puzzle gameplay, with annoying needle, sideways gravity, and even forces you to do a long screen twice but flipped the second time. I genuinely cannot find anything worth playing that you will not find anywhere else but done better. Cannot recommend.

Red coins have always been a concept that I've loved in Mario games, and they were extremely well implemented here. Nearly every single stage is enjoyable and the red coins practically fit right in. Definite must-play!

I don't exactly understand why I like this one so much, but the way the jumps feel and the relatively steep difficulty curve just hit the right spot. The autoscroller was a misstep though. Would recommend.

Extremely fun and short needle, with many creative jumps that hit the right spot of difficult and creative that many fail to achieve in intermediate needle. Super solid.

Rating based upon 100% ending:
An absolutely crazy experience that I would recommend to anyone (at least the any% category, that is). Bosses, pathing, platforming and production value of this game are perfected down to the smallest minute detail in Any%, the skill curve of the base game being very well thought out. The final boss is incredibly climactic, and genuinely super fun to play through.
Unfortunately it just really isn't as good when going for 100%. It becomes kind of a random mixed bag when going through 100%, some areas being stellar and memorable, and others not so much. One of these areas I'm convinced was made as a joke, the gameplay seems so intentionally tedious and horrifically annoying that it's unironically up there with one of the worst stages I've ever played, and significantly dampened the experience.
Would absolutely recommend the Any% to anyone looking for a fun time, but that one stage in 100% makes it so I really cannot in good conscience recommend a full completion. Regardless, you'll enjoy the grand majority of this game (most likely).

Stunned. There is so much genuinely entertaining content, needle, gimmicks, and bosses that all ties into a story and theme wonderfully. This is a fully cohesive game filled to the brim with platforming that directly plays into the atmosphere at hand. The bosses are no joke either, the majority of them being very well fleshed out to keep you interested in the fight.
Wholeheartedly, play this game. You don't want to miss it.
