FTJ is a fantastic avoidance based adventure game (avoidanceventure if you will). The game sends you off on a surreal, meme filled trip through odd landscapes filled with strange characters and stranger yet avoidances. Each avoidance is preceded by a screen of needle (barring an avoidance rush in the middle). The needle is actually fantastic, which was a surprise as it's not the focus. There are a lot of cool gimmicks used, and even the non gimmick needle is creative and fun. One highlight was a unique teleporting jump refresher gimmick. The avoidances are the bulk of the game, and they're a potpourri of weird memes and fun attacks. None of them ever felt particularly unfair (although some got close), and each of them felt pretty different from the others. Sprinkled in amongst the normal avoidances are some cool gimmicks, like a driving section and baseball.
Overall, this is a game with a lot to offer. Not all of it will click with everyone, but I think any adventure lover will enjoy at least something here. I personally enjoyed almost everything. The game has a very odd vibe, with secrets and bizarre memes scattered around, and it creates a journey that's hard to forget.

Save the Ship is a fantastic adventure game that harkens back to the classic style of fangames, replicating several iconic franchises from Mega Man to Metroid. The game has some nice humor, and a little bit of extra production value brought by voice acting. Each area is unique and fun, with each capturing some of the feel of the game they're based on, mixed with fangame charm. The highlight of the game is the Metroid area, which has a fun hunt for items and a climatic boss fight. Overall, the game is fantastic with a wide array of different things bringing a lot of enjoyment. If you're an adventure fan, do yourself a favor and add this to your "to play" list.

Huge hidden gem of a game. This is what classic-style trap games should aspire to. Every single trap in this game was unique, conspiring to kill you in a myriad of hilarious and varied methods. Very few of them were things I'd seen in other games either, which is impressive. This game has some really cool 3D effects, creating awesome rotating spikes and an incredible foreground attack in the final boss.
The first area has a lot of awesome traps, with every spike being a new death. The boss of this area is good, but not very memorable. The second area however, is based around puzzles, and the game introduces not one, not two, but three different types of puzzles, each very unique and each used to great effect to create some awesome stuff. I'd love an entire game that expanded on these concepts! The boss of this area is more of a puzzle rush, and it doesn't seem like you can lose the fight, but it's still a ton of fun and a really unique fight.
The third area was a bit weaker, turning to generic traps more than the first. However, it still had some fun stuff, and some clever surprises. After this stage we reach the three phase final boss. Luckily, there are checkpoints between the phases. Each phase is unique, and they are a lot of fun to play. The first two were fun, but again, nothing special. However, the third phase is a really epic fight, with a lot of cool stuff thrown in (like the aforementioned attack making use of 3d).
Overall, this is a game that absolutely deserves to be better known. It's one of the most creative trap games I've seen, and the puzzles are fantastic. If you're an adventure fan, I can't recommend this enough.

Extremely annoying game that has too many generic traps, but with a lot of good ideas sprinkled in. The game would really benefit from more saves, for a lot of the game saves are several screens long, and with multiple traps at the end of all of them. This makes for a lot of really annoying time waster gameplay that could be mitigated by more saves.
The first stage is super generic. The boss is actually pretty cool, but other than that it's just hold right saves with unoriginal traps.
Stage 2 is my favorite, it has a unique take on gravity flippers and some sideways gravity. It has the most involved platforming as well, and a great boss.
Stage 3 is a Madoka themed stage, which I really wish I liked more because I love the ideas. This stage has the best traps, with several that were unique and funny, unfortunately they're all in the middle of long saves with next to no platforming and a bunch of generic traps. The boss is really cool, but it kind of sucks to play, there are several attacks that feel really unfair, and a lot of stuff that's complete luck.
Stage 4 is horrible. It's completely bland, with only trivial platforming and the longest saves in the game. The stick figures with funny noises were funny the first couple times, but quickly become annoying, especially when you have to press right and spam shoot for a minute before getting to the hard part of a save. This stage has three bosses, the first two have a single attack and are very boring. The third, however, is a complete dumpsterfire. It has a set attack pattern, and really precise and unintuitive dodges, so it becomes an awful grind of memorizing and executing tight dodges to get one second further to see a new attack. Also, they didn't give it enough attacks so it loops back around for the last third of the fight, which is pretty lame.
Stage 5 is the second best, it brings back all the gimmicks from the previous stages and introduces a color changing laser gimmick. The lasers are pretty cool for some saves, but a lot of places just use them for time wasting repetitive movements before a end of save trap insta-gibs you. The final boss has three phases, each of which gets worse. The first phase is actually a pretty fun boss. The second phase is really long and features some awful instagibs that are way too precise to dodge. Each part of phase two has a lot of health, and can barely be attacked, making it really boring to beat. The final phase repeats the problems of the stage 4 boss, with a fixed attack pattern, extremely precise dodges, unreactable stuff you have to memorize, and not enough attacks, causing looping at the end.
Overall, I really wish I liked this game, cause it has a lot of fantastic ideas. Unfortunately, the execution is very lacking. There are way too many generic traps, saves that are too long to be pleasant, and some really unfun boss design. In the end, I can't really recommend this game, although it might be worth watching a playthrough to see some of the cool stuff.

This game starts out really well, but goes downhill fast. The first 3 stages are cool, and use some nontraditional layouts, creating some unique feeling rooms. The cute house in the middle of the game is an awesome feature. However, after that the game gets really generic. Stage 4 is a trials stage, with pretty annoying and generic jumps. Stage 5 gets way harder than the rest of the game, and becomes serious named jump spam. Overall, I'd recommend playing the first three stages then quitting while you're ahead.
