generic gimmickless needle collab between three makers with surprisingly not so awful balance. the stages don't look very visually appealing (especially the rightmost and leftmost areas) but they aren't necessarily an eyesore to look at. the needle is alright, as in it plays alright. however, where I draw the issue with it is that it offers nothing new or interesting and serves as another game to add to the pile of "le epic common jump needle collab". games in similar veins, like TsuTaMao, have more unique needle styles that set them apart from other games. TsuTaMao is structured in the same exact way as this game: three different stages from three different makers - yet it's simply better. for a bit about the specific areas themselves, uhuhu stage in the middle is the most fun one. it's also the hardest one. I see people saying the black and white stage on the far right is the hardest, but I just don't see how. it's a ton of generic jumps that everyone's done before thousands of times. oh and that one horrid 2f vstring jump that's near impossible to figure out on your own. it's align dependent as well

Rating of stages would go: Nyaa > Matsu >>>>>>>>>>>> Nepunowa
Nyaa and Matsu's stages were good, odd shit jump here and there, but nepunowa's stage was a complete trainwreck. Weird jumps in every save; floor gates; some jumps that basically require you to jump cancel; halfway through the stage you get hit with a 32 gate screen like wtf???? and i guess the creator just forgor how to make good needle, said fuck it and destroyed the final screen. One of the most ass jumps I've ever had to play - it's the second big drop in the screen before the final few jumps. Refer to shadowlink57's video on how to do it, but here's a few more pointers: get align 2 (it's the wall opposite of the left to the save), back of left foot off the platform, then 2f bonk and then, when you are basically offscreen frame perfect jump to make the jump. I swear that shit could not have been playtested.
Maybe play the other stages.

Needle game that's split into three stages: Nyaa, Matsu, and Nepunowa
Nyaa stage seemed the easiest of the three. Matsu stage is based on the Uhuhu Spike games. While fun, some of the segments in this stage were a bit annoying. Nepunowa stage can get frustrating if you don't know how to jump cancel (like myself), and at times the background made it difficult to move the kid into a good position in order to execute a precise jump. Also, I liked how the stage highlighted the proper align for some of the more difficult jumps.
Probably the only gripe I have about the game is the use of touch saves.
Overall, it's a pretty solid needle game.
