For: New I Wanna Be The Weegee
For: New I Wanna Be The Weegee
New Weegee is one of the most exciting 2022 releases that nobody expected at all. It's been years since the old version was first shown to the community, but now here it is almost a decade later in a complete form, and it's going to knock your fucking socks off.
Weegee is an extremely long Adventure game with a load of variety to carry it the entire way. The game has over 15 different stages in it, most of which come with their own bosses, and all of them have a different level of gameplay designed to keep the player entertained but also on their toes. One minute you're dealing with platforms that are carried by spider string, another time you'll be shooting orbs to flip your gravity. A major factor that I really appreciate about this game is that Trigger has proven you can make single jump gameplay incredibly fun, and surprisingly gets a lot of mileage out of it too. Other neat factors involve 3 unique items you get that serve as cool gimmicks, each time you unlock one the game feels like it evolves just a little bit more as the platforming becomes even cooler. On that note, I'd say in general this game has some of the best platforming segments of any fangame. The bosses were pretty neat too, they usually involve gimmick usage as well in order to make each of them unique and interesting.
There are some aspects of the game, despite my 10 rating, that I do think could use some improvement anyways in order to bring up the general quality and help others who have struggled. First, there are two bosses I would say are quite problematic: The small swords boss is kind of tedious when you have to go through the first phase every single time, also on the account of them having too many attacks you can't deal damage in. The bird boss was also pretty rough because the gust attack was actually just incredibly difficult compared to everything else and truly distasteful. For platforming, I would say that once multiple gimmicks became involved it felt like playing DDR on my keyboard, which was actually just pretty terrible to play. Grandmaster's Path first two saves were by far the worst things in the game and should either have some sort of save point or be nerfed (especially the hook shot cancel on the right side of the second screen). Also, I would recommend turning the lighting brightness a bit higher by default, and because I went most of the game not realizing you could change it maybe make the hold button press to toggle by default as well. Finally, Boo Kart, I've seen basically nobody have a solid time with it, myself included, because the handling on it is absolutely awful; I only even managed to beat it by committing to throwing the first map since it felt way harder than the rest. These comments are mainly just suggestions in case an eventual update is planned to fix more stuff, but the game is completely playable even if not done.
Overall, I think New Weegee is one of the best contenders for Fangame of the Year, and easily one of the most memorable and enjoyable experiences I've had. It took years to make, but the wait was absolutely worth it because this game is one of the absolute monoliths of our community.

This is a pretty damn solid needle game with a lot of variety in the design style. I found it pretty enjoyable, especially some of the side path stuff, and also respect it for being a great atmospheric work.
The game takes place over a hub path that breaks off into various side paths, each of those containing a few stages. Each of the stages within the game is pretty short, usually consisting of just a few saves, but they're all completely different from each other in terms of both design and aesthetics. I really enjoyed some of these quite a bit, especially AV' House as well as Abyss, but the other stages are pretty cool as well. It's worth noting that the gimmick tag being used is technically accurate but still extremely minimal so don't be scared off since most of this is standard needle.
Overall, I think this is definitely Avgustine's best work, and I would absolutely recommend it to people looking for an excellent Needle game to play. Special props to the death effects as well.

Usually, when I play an Adventure game it's to stop an unstoppable hunger inside myself, but this game really just made me hungrier instead. You'll have to find out for yourself what I mean.
The game basically serves as a Needleventure game featuring a handful of interesting gimmicks. Some of these you might be familiar with from other Wookie games, such as glass spikes that break and throw shards around if you shoot them, or acid barrels that splash on boxes melting them. The new ones also add a level of variety to the screens, especially one that changes how you'll view the area around you. I liked these gimmicks mostly, though I did find some of their usage a bit repetitive, especially the red kill-blocks.
After you finish the first hub you'll reach a second, these are stages that all end with bosses and they're all vastly different from each other. One of them for example is a pretty solid avoidance that gives the player HP. Another one works as a traditional shoot boss, while the third is basically also an avoidance mostly. Now the fourth boss (it's worth noting you can do them in any order) involves using two of the new gimmicks in an incredibly awkward way, I really disliked this fight and malded quite a bit at it; this fight is probably the main reason my rating isn't higher.
Outside of one of the bosses, I found the majority of the game to be pretty decent so would definitely recommend it still. It has quite an atmosphere and style to it that makes it incredibly unique and worth checking out.

For: Serial Experiments Kid
For: Serial Experiments Kid
Serial Experiments Kid is a bonafide Adventure game by Dagger, who as always brings out quite an entertaining product.
The game takes place in a mysterious building in which the Kid has been imprisoned. Within this building are bedrooms in which sleeping will transport you to each of the different stages in the game. As you'd expect from a Dagger game, he focuses heavily on variety and making each save feel like an individual idea. There are occasional gimmicks used to deliver on this idea, though one water gimmick was rather unsavory. Each stage also ends with a boss fight, I found them to be mostly alright but not very exciting to play. Wrapping the whole game together is a storyline, and even with it all being translated finally I can't say it was really worth anyone's intrigue, it also just ends randomly without explaining basically anything going on. That's my final observation of the game, it sort of just ends on a low note as if the last stage got cut before the game was released somehow; you simply end the game without any real narrative satisfaction at all. Besides that fact though, if you don't care about the story then the game should be most enjoyable.
Overall, I think the game was pretty fun and represents what the Adventure genre is at its roots, would definitely recommend it.
