Hey so I was far too quick about getting this game out, meaning I forgot to do some important things. I fixed most of the issues, but I did not add an align marker to the 7th screen. Essentially, there's an 11 px gap that you need a particular align for, that align being located on the left side of the rightmost block (it's pretty obvious what block you want); however, you may also have the align anyways, so that may be irrelevant. I tried to make sure you couldn't get it before that block, but I forgot to fix the fact that you can come into the screen with the align.

The visuals are abysmal due to their distracting effects, though would be decent without all the excess noise in the background. Aside from that, the needle is very okay, if un-inspired. I had fun playing the game, but that's all.

For: I Wanna Kill the Kermit 3
I am not in a good place while I write this place. I want to forget everything and just let this life drift off. I wish that I could just feel free to let go and have no one to disappoint or abandon because though they may be the reason I hold on to begin with, sometimes I just wish I didn't have this obligation to them to live. I live a good life, but the way I feel wouldn't suggest that most of the time, but then most of the time I'm too busy in my own head to see around myself all the reasons I should and could be happy. I have people who love me, I have people that I love, I have a home and food and drink and games and books and movies and shows and so many different things to make me feel happy, but all that doesn't make a difference in the face of just a few distortions in my life. It takes so much to feel good, but so little to feel bad, and how is that fair? Why is it that people should have to work all their lives to feel a bit of happiness, but if just one little thing should go wrong, that all goes to waste? Why should I have been alive eighteen years of my life just for it to go to shit with the death of my mother? Why should anyone work for any bit of happiness when a year like this could come for us all again and again? And the longer we live, the bigger the chance for this sort of year to happen again, given the state of our own home. We'll waste away because we didn't work hard enough, but then everyone works so damn hard for so damn much just for it to all fall away to so damn little.
I want to give up. I want to give in. I just want to do anything but try because I am so afraid of my efforts being made null and void. I am so afraid that a year like this could happen again and I would be able to do nothing about it - and it's expected of me to just push forward and hold all this pain and suffering, that's expected of us all. There are so many Atlases alive holding the world on their shoulders, so what difference does it make if one of them just lets the world go?
But, these feelings come and go. They are not permanent, and so little is.
I don't know what any of this has to do with Kermit 3, I really don't, and saying all that and just mentioning a silly fangame's name makes me feel like I'm writing a farce. What I know is, Kermit 3 makes it all easier to bear. All games are meant to do that, but in the worst moments, what could a stupid distraction do to help? There's so little that can really help any given person through their darkest moments. More often than not, it's sheer force of will and a bit of luck that gets them through, whether it's a well-timed text, a perfect friend, or something as small as the scent in the air when night falls. There is no concrete way of forging one's way through the darkness. There is no lamp nor candle which will light our way. We are merely grasping around in the blackness hoping that we'll grab onto something that makes it a bit easier to make it through. Kermit 3 is what I grabbed this time.
It is not a "stupid distraction" and it is anything but a mere game - it makes me happy. It doesn't take me away from my life in a real way, it doesn't make me forget every one of my woes, but it makes them feel a little smaller. Kermit 3 is the closest to light I can find in this bleak moment of mine, and there's nothing wrong with that. It doesn't matter what helps you, so long as it helps - and if it does that, then it is something truly beautiful.
Kermit 3 is truly beautiful. I could apply so many surface-level superlatives to it, I could describe so many positive aspects about it, but simply speaking these things into the world would not aptly describe the feeling of playing it. The soundtrack is splendid, the visuals are spectacular, the gameplay is superb, everything about this game is special, but that doesn't tell you why Kermit 3 is my light in this moment; yet, I couldn't tell you why. It was just what I happened to grab. There was no reason for it to have been in my life, nothing that suggested I should have had the pleasure to experience this game, it merely happened through coincidence on a massive scale.
I suppose it's a bit embarrassing to write all this out on a silly website dedicated to the rating and storage of thousands upon thousands of super-niche hardcore platformers, but I don't really care. If you think this is something worth making fun of, go for it. I've said what I needed to say, maybe it will resonate with someone.

For: I wanna be the Magnificent Stumble
For: I wanna be the Magnificent Stumble
Before I really dig into this, let me get one thing straight: normal (aka easy) mode is not a 70 in difficulty, so don't let the gamers fool you into believing otherwise. Maybe I'm just not used to this sort of needle, maybe I'm just bad, but it did not feel like a 70 to me at all.
Anyways...
I Wanna be the Magnificent Stumble is a classic needle game from the famous Hiddow, maker of Catharsis. It's such a classic needle game that you can find touches of Stumble in nearly every modern needle game you touch. Wonderful and egg were massively inspired by Hiddow's innovative design, Kale changed the face of the needle genre utilizing inspiration from Stumble. The facts are this: if you play a needle game post-2016, chances are you're playing something inspired by Stumble to some degree - whether it's through needle design or aesthetics.
Yes, that's one of the biggest boons of Magnificent Stumble, the utterly superb aesthetics. Each screen is striking in its presentation, combining often-messy spike layouts with minimalist block designs and sharp color choices. What's truly special about the visuals of the game, however, is that there was no play quality sacrificed to make this happen. Every jump feels special and like there was hours of thought poured into them so they would be as satisfying and well-balanced as possible. Even concerning the off-kilter spike layouts, they manage to meld excellently with the surrounding visuals so as to compliment them rather than clash.
Another aspect of Stumble that really, in my eyes, changed the game is its cohesion. This is something that Catharsis excelled at as well, but here I feel it turns the game into something truly special. The game is broken up into three sections: intro, left warp, and right warp. Though they flow excellently, what I want to really talk about concerns the left warp in particular. This is the longest section of the game and obviously the hardest, but it's where the game also truly shines. Often in needle games, you'll find yourself either just working your way to a warp or to a conspicuous exit on the left or right side of the screen. Thanks to these mostly-monotonous but well-established design choices, a lot of needle games can feel rather dreary and same-y. Magnificent Stumble opts for the latter design choice, but does something rather unique. Though you do traverse through screens in the same way, they are designed such that you'll find yourself working through screens you saw earlier on in the game. For example, one of the early saves has you drop into the next screen and do one final jump. Lower in this screen, however, is a whole other save that you won't be seeing for quite a while (or maybe you will, if you're a better player than me). This sort of cohesion makes the level feel like far more than just a series of well-designed needle screens. Instead, everything just felt like one big world that I was working through, like an adventurer in a foreign land.
Magnificent Stumble seems to take its roots in games like Fly the Far Away, concerning its design choices. In Fly the Far Away, every jump is important to some degree, whether its in its own right because it utilizes novel maneuvers and derives its difficulty from being peculiarly tight, or in relation to the screen at large - think of the plane at the end of the first screen, for example. This sort of thing is what Magnificent Stumble thrives on, though it's not quite as difficult - at least, on normal mode, anyways.
This, then, is the magnificence of Stumble. Every jump serves the grander scheme and always tests you in some way. Not once did I feel as if something was thrown in just to fill up the screen or to balance out a save. Everything is in its right place, and to remove any spike or cherry would be to damage the unity of Magnificent Stumble. Though it's not an astonishingly long game (there could be no more than twenty screens or so), I would not be surprised to find this took months of work and fine-tuning, if not years. At the same time, however, I would be similarly un-fazed to find that this was merely a weeks worth of work. This sort of design can only come through extreme effort or through divine inspiration, nothing less than that.
To recommend Magnificent Stumble would be to recommend Citizen Kane. The people who want to watch it will have already done so, and everything watched by the people who don't want to watch it has been in some way touched by Magnificent Stumble. In everything we play now, this game's spirit can be detected, and that is something that brings a smile to my face.

For: I wanna be the Aidoru
Aidoru is a four stage needle game with an emphasis on needle and a lack of care for visual flair. Often, jumps will be designed without any thought given to how ugly they look. Despite this, there's a sort of charm to the look of the game, not that I would think less of the game for having ugly visuals to begin with. They're not bothersome, at any rate, although it's difficult to see spikes in water at times.
The needle itself is surprisingly interesting, though the first stage doesn't suggest the game's capacity for semi-unique design. There's nothing too hard throughout the game, but there are certainly some exceptions in jumps and some saves here and there; nonetheless, the game is short enough that you still won't take longer than fifteen or twenty minutes to clear the game. The final screen is the hardest in the game thanks to being a one-save area, and it's also my least favorite thanks to highlighting some issue with the water that I've yet to figure out. I would often jump out of water3 and not have my second jump, leading to a lot of infuriating deaths.
No matter, this is a good needle game which is evidently the creator's first outing as a needle maker. I'd like to see more from them!
