The needle is horrid but the avoidances are somehow worse

Based on 100 % clear. Totally overrated game, doesn't feel like adventure. Needle was pretty meh, it wasn't absolutely generic or bad, but it doesn't feel good at any point i would say, very mediocre and forgettable (last save was kinda cool, but that's it). Avoidances were like ok, but it covers pretty much everything about them. I don't think you will be surpsised by anything in the game if you experienced enough. Maybe good game for beginners tho, who wanna sharpen their skills. Also i don't feel blasting production value, it was good, sometimes it wasn't, and that's it. Overall, just epitome of mid game
The only feature that i really like in this game is how you can choose on second avoidance, that it will be boss or avoidance at your will

It's a decent game that is visually impressive as hell, but with gameplay that declines each stage and as the years go by. There's a good level of creativity to be felt from the starting stages of the game, but as each goes on it starts to look more like someone's bad Jtool Needle, with the final stage being a good example of just making everything harder at the sacrifice of good gameplay. It's generic, boring, and feels completely lifeless compared to the other stages.
It does have some good things, such as the ability to do needle screens over bosses, which I greatly appreciate due to how many avoidance this has. That's also a gripe too, why is the worm boss one you can actually fight normally whilst everything else only has an avoidance and no fighting to it, it feels like a feature you wanted to have originally but did a 180 on and it really made the game less enjoyable for me.
Finally, I'm not a big fan of the final boss either, at all. Unlike every other boss in the entire game, you cannot skip it, and not knowing you will be forced to fight him means you might have skipped some of the other avoidances, meaning you may be unprepared for this one in turn. There's plenty of RNG attacks, almost all of them, but the real pain comes from the very end, where you MUST be in the middle of the screen or will die at the very end of the fight, it's something you might not even see coming before it's too late and it made me have to play it for almost half an hour longer because of it.
Overall, I really think this game could be good, but it needs a serious overhaul to the later stages of needle platforming and preferably more actual fighting modes for the bosses. Also, you should either add a way to skip the final boss like every other one or give a player a warning at the start that they won't be able to skip it and may need the other bosses for practice.
