Hi, I'm Jopagu. She/They pronouns please :)
I mainly play adventure and needle. All ratings are subjective but ratings above a 9 are more subjective. Essentially, the order of my favorite games list changes daily, and there’s little rhyme or reason separating a 9.3 from a 9.5 except my own whims at the moment of review!

Another interesting experiment by Canus, once again proving him as one of the most innovative minds in fangames. How he keeps coming up with such novel formats for games is beyond me.

CBT is a fun little joke medley, that reverses the usual formula by taking infamous needle screens and adding triggers that nerf all the jumps, making them much easier. The game has a pretty good balance of leaving some difficulty, so you do actually have to do some needle instead of just walking through. There are a few balance issues, where I felt like a couple things were too hard for a game of this nature. However, it's mostly just a chill time. The ending does a really good joke, that convinced me to add 0.5 to the rating.

A short but interesting sudoku adventure. It focuses on a surreal horror-adjacent vibe, with some cool looking visual effects. This makes it feel sort of like something out of I Want or Burnmind, but it's also pretty unique. There's one main gimmick that's used in an interesting way to create platforming that is both enjoyable, but very unrefined, in accordance with the sudoku style layouts and design. The game also comes with a short story in the readme, which is a neat attempt at tying in a horror vibe. Overall, a creative venture that despite it's short length shines as a unique and enjoyable experience.

A fun, trap filled adventure game suitable for beginners. The game is about an anime girl going on an adventure with (presumably) her sister. There is a story throughout, although it's in Chinese so I can't comment on its quality. The gameplay itself is fun, with some creative usage of momentum based gimmicks such as wind and spin-launchers. One gimmick is something I've never seen before, and it was a total blast, creating some really fun and unique platforming. The final boss was super fun, although I thought the first phase was a tad too long. The traps are the highlight of the game, with some really funny ones that had me giggling out loud. The game breathes new life into classic traps, with age old tropes being used in ways that I appreciated, rather than being annoying. It also uses more modern style traps, with funny images and sounds showing up to kill you in hilarious ways.
Overall, an easy recommendation for people who like trap games, particularly those with involved gameplay to complement the traps. The low difficulty makes this an appealing choice for newcomers, but the platforming is well enough designed that the game has something to enjoy for every adventure fan.

A cute little gimmick needle game, but not really anything more. The gimmicks are fairly simple, although there's a single complicated one. With one exception, the gimmicks stay fairly basic the whole way through, but I felt like they were used better in the second half. The first half is a forgettable but decent needle game, but the second half has some fun cycle platforming that makes the game worth playing.
The bosses are creative, using the gimmicks from all the preceding stages to create an atypically involved boss fight. However, they are quite lacking in attacks and end up feeling a bit lacking. The second boss is cool at first, but quickly loses its luster as it's all just more of the same.
As Kurath has said, this game feels like quite the failure in terms of "adventure", the areas are super disjointed, and the story might as well not exist. The bosses are just plopped in, without even warranting a mention from the protagonist. While the game is a serviceable needle game, I feel like it doesn't really feel like the adventure game it claims to be.
Overall, certainly worth playing for fans of gimmick needle, particularly cycles. There's some really cool stuff with the lasers and the flipping spikes. The momentum kid is the one novel gimmick, and while maybe controversial, I thought it was awesome. The game is a bit of a let down if you're expecting an adventure, but otherwise it's a recommendation, though not one without caveats.
