Secrets are required to reach the end.
Sometimes, the start area can be deceiving, and the game underneath it is actually quite good. This is not one of those games, and yet there's definitively something interesting here. This is a collaboration between 3 makers, each making 1 stage with 6 distinct areas and a boss.
The variety in these areas is the highlight of this game. They're all quite short, with most of them being 1 save and the longest being a few screens, and most of them try their own things while still remaining mostly trap needle (the few that are more generic end up being just that). Nothing ever overstays its welcome and I had fun the whole way through.
The problem with this game is everything else. The bosses are mostly boring, with one of them being pretty unfair near the end and the final boss has 2 attacks yet takes 3 minutes to beat. The secrets required to get to the final area are mostly ok and you can easily backtrack to beaten areas from the hub (there's 2 per stage), but there's no indication of where they are so it can take an insane amount of trial and error until you find them. I had to give up and decompile to figure out one of them after an hour of searching. And the final area they unlock isn't anything great either: it's just trap needle, not really the good stuff I was here for.
That being said, I still enjoyed my initial playthrough up to the secret hunt way more than I expected, and I would recommend the 3 initial stages for that reason.
