Rating based on 100% clear of Normal mode.
I Wanna Be Making Forever Enjoy Desperately 2 (that's quite the mouthful) is a fangame that is quite confusing in a lot of aspects, most notably its structure. You start out with original content, before walking into a long-save medley stage, and finally a regular medley stage. Why the game struggles so hard to pick a genre, I'm not sure of. Apart from that, there's the lack of credit for half of the stuff they chose (the original stage even has the entirety of I Wanna Jumping Heart at the end, completely uncredited). If it weren't for this, I would probably rate the game higher, but oh well.
Anyway, the game itself isn't much better. The level design is full of generic jumps, and the saves are also terribly unbalanced. Some saves also have align-dependent corner jumps in them, which is an obvious negative if you're not familiar with aligns, as the game makes no effort to direct you to the correct one. There's also secrets, but personally I would just advise to skip these. Apart from secret 1 being literally nothing, secret 2 also follows the long-save format from the rest of the stage, with some annoying choke jumps at the end. And then secret 3 is its own beast, full of fake blocks that will kill you instantly upon contact, as well as the usual terrible save balance and align-dependent corners (including one immediately after a drop that will try everything in its power to steal the align away from you), not to mention the visuals making it kind of hard to see what you're doing. The game also has some bugs, as yakkun pointed out, for example the Onelife screen will crash the game if you touch the warp the wrong way.
So yeah, not that good of a game. Really only recommended if you're really bored and/or curious, and aren't going for secrets.

"He's unpredictable...unstoppable...a necromancer...a trickster... He's...RNG" -TJ
I Wanna Get Rekt is a fangame with a very unconventional idea: it flips the standard medley format on its head, so instead of platforming screens, you are tasked with fighting bosses. It's certainly a unique idea, and the way it's used here is also interesting. You're put up against bosses from games such as 8bit, Churatch, Make The Novelty and other famous fangames from the early 2010s. It's quite the interesting time capsule of what the western community was like during its "golden age", as Kiyoshi once put it.
But how does the game itself play? Well, on one hand, since the chosen games are classics, most of them have some interesting design. Since bosses are pulled from basically everywhere, there's a lot of variety in the different types of attacks you'll need to dodge, which keeps the game exciting through most of its runtime. That's not even taking into account all the original content in the game, which does an even better job with keeping the player wondering what will come next. However, LastTISisLife definitely has a good point—with so many bosses, it's only inevitable that some of them are gonna be not fun. Some of them especially are really terrible because of various issues, but the big one is the unfair RNG you get met with way too often—that quote at the beginning of my review wasn't put there for no reason, it was foreshadowing for this point. Another big problem that appears sometimes is the fact that some bosses require you to mash like crazy to get past them quickly, which can really hurt your hands after a while. At least the makers seemed to know how much was too much, as they put extra saves in some bosses to make the difficulty curve more balanced. But yeah, the game still has some glaring problems in it, and definitely could use some fine-tuning for me to enjoy it more.
Still, it's undeniable that this was a game with heart and soul put into it. The game is so well-produced, with visual upgrades to some bosses that definitely needed them, and a bunch of references to different parts of the community. One of the most prominent examples of high production value is the Build-A-Kid Workshop, where you can customize your Kid sprite by coloring different parts of the sprite and even giving him a cool hat, and have this sprite appear everywhere in the game (with the exception of Starz0r for some reason). It's clear that the makers put as much care as possible into making the game as good as it could be.
And really, I'd say that they mostly succeeded at this. The issue of some bosses being unfun isn't a problem for as often as you might think, on top of an already one-of-a-kind idea for a fangame that doubles as a love letter to the I Wanna Community. It definitely has some flaws when seen through a modern lens, but I wouldn't say it has "a really good reason why you [wouldn't] like it", as TJ's pastebin put it. Recommended to people that like fangame bosses, as this will definitely give you a lot to work with.

Some ok beginner needle. I would have rated it higher if not for some things that definitely bother me about it, like the poorly placed saveblockers or terrible audio quality for the music. Still, this game shows that yangshuoen is getting better at making games, so overall I'm glad to see you return and can't wait to see what else you have in store for the community.

For: I Wanna Be The Senor
For: I Wanna Be The Senor
A short needle game with a boss, with modified screens from I Wanna Be The Another Zero.
The needle is mostly very generic, and sometimes becomes very annoying, the Stage Maker screen in particular was miserable to play through. The difficulty balance is also all over the place, with some screens taking upwards of half an hour, while others I cleared far quicker.
At least the boss is refreshing, it's kind of basic and hard on the hands, but the actual attacks are still fun to dodge. It's definitely a lot easier than the platforming, which is kind of a disappointment and a relief at the same time.
So yeah, unless you like this type of needle, this probably isn't for you.
