Super chill game, it's only platforming with the occasional gimmick mixed in but it all feels very smooth to play. There's a few rough patches throughout the game but it's mostly a very smooth ride I thoroughly enjoyed. I don't have a ton to say really, it's just neat :)

A pretty hefty game with a lot of content. It plays largely like an adventure game except without the bosses. The core game has 5 main stages, each with two areas followed by a final stage split into four areas. Each area is distinct in its own way, offering a pretty good amount of variety. Every stage has a secret which is required for the dark areas, which are basically just the main four areas except with extra spikes.
Overall its pretty good - it looks decent and has a lot of content and decent variety gimmick wise. The problem is design-wise, there's a lot of corridors and a lot of repeated formations. This is substantially more noticeable on the dark worlds which did not feel any more interesting, just replaying the game with more generic stuff to fill in the gaps. There's a few exceptions but they are simply that, exceptions. Production is good but beyond the level design, there's so many playability problems that it makes a bumpy ride. Save placement is bad, making some segments where you die repeatedly somewhat annoying. This is exacerbated by the fact that there's a handful of saves that are much more difficult than everything else in the game, making those segments pretty grindy and tedious.
Its worth playing if you want a adventure style needle game, though I'd hesitate to bother with the dark worlds (even the final stage is kind of bad). The needle design is kind of dated, with a ton of repeated 32px placements but its definitely not bad.

Very well made Needle adventure game minus a couple sections. However, it's still very much worth your time for at least any% clear.
