Atrocious. I will briefly say why later but I must highlight something first.
I normally give the rating of the easier difficulty in all of my entries and then specify the difficulty of a harder mode in the review. Nevertheless, that is not the story here. You first walk into the game, and encounter not only astoundingly easy needle (consider a difficulty of 15 until you clear it), but the most bizarre and nonsensical level design ever. There are "skips", but then there are paths that you can take that have absolutely no danger. Why? Why is there a gate in front of me that I can easily jump over it? This is acid.
Then you clear the game with, most probably, 5 deaths or less, and you scratch your head, because it took you 3 minutes.
Well, this is not the game.
Extra is NOT unlocked by making the game on Nonono mode (aka Impossible). It is unlocked by Reveal Spoiler. Surprise! Reveal Spoiler: TAS jumps, planes, corners, diamonds, diagonals and many 16-pixel gap drops. The most generic way to make a game harder has this fangame as a textbook example. The design still remains bad, although a wee bit more interesting. This is not saying much at all, since the game is bad by essence. Music is ok-ish and doesn't suit the mood at all, the background, although colorful, looks poorly designed and it actually resets(!), the bottom of the screen is black, blocking your view of The Kid's shoes to calculate your align and the tileset design cannot be seen sometimes because of the brightest spots of the animated background. Needle and visual design are a real pain.
Also, in this new section, the curve is such a mess that can barely be described, and save placement is endlessly head-scratching. The most notorious screen is the one I uploaded: no saves. The next screen after that (or two after that, can't recall and I just barely played the game lol) makes you go through to corners in succession. You hit a save. Then you make a diagonal and there's a save. My jaw dropped. What was world thinking?
Not recommended unless you're an incurable completist like me. I have no remedy, but even the fangames I rate this low, I somewhat enjoy playing them. I like fangames in general, so it's all on me.

Normal game rating would be like 2.5 and difficulty 10 or something. It's really easy and boring. That's why this is based on extra, which is better but only makes it a meh game.
Extra is way harder, and it has some interesting saves, but most of it is still really boring. There's also one save with a drop that I found quite annoying

It was an pretty fun needle but the first half of the game was unnecessary. I wish it would have gone to the real needle instantly without going through easier variants of the room first.

Rating includes extra, which is the actual game for all intents and purposes.

This review doesn't count extra. This game is extremely easy needle, even to a beginner. Only recommended if you're really bad at needle

Somewhat nice needle game. The first part is extremely easy, with a F jump being the hardest jump there. Then, you get to a fake clear screen with a portal hidden...Somewhere. Once you reach the portal, you'll have to get through buffed versions of all the previous screens. Generic jumps and original jumps are all mixed together in this game. I'm not really fond of the visuals or of the music (They're not bad, just a matter of personal preference), but I really thank the maker for not using any death sound.
I liked some saves, and really disliked some. There's one save where you have to walk around through plenty of easy jumps that are there just to waste your time, until you get to the gate corner near the end of the save, just to die yet once again (Putting boringly easy jumps at the beginning of a save as fillers before the hard jumps near the end of a save is always a bad idea. Always). The difficulty curve is all over the place, as well, with some saves that can be easily 1st-tried and some that seem to gather all the difficult jumps of the screen at the same save.
I kinda enjoyed it, but it could be a lot better. Not sure if I would recommend.
