Pretty fun needle game. Plenty of creative jumps, really nice visuals with a cute snow effect, nice music and a pretty nice design.
That being said, it doesn't work very well as a beginner-oriented game, which seems like it was the idea. It's certainly easier than most of Infern0man's other games, but I'd hardly call it beginner-friendly. You can't really expect a beginner to know how walk-offs are supposed to work beforehand, or how touching the red lines (The ones that give you the good align for the jumps) is supposed to help them. Introducing platform jumps with a tricky jump and without explaining how are platform jumps supposed to work isn't really a good idea either.
Looking away from that aspect, the only other complaint I have is that the snow particles combined with the blood splatter can cause lag on certain computers, and there's no way to turn off the particles or remove the blood splatter or do anything that prevents the lag from happening at all.
Those issues don't really do much harm to the game's quality, though, and while I can't say it works very well as a beginner-friendly needle game, it's certainly pretty good as a normal needle game. Would recommend.

Needle game with some solid production value and a healthy amount of screens. The platforming overall flowed well and it just felt fun to play through the 2 times I did. Even though the game never got too challenging it remained interesting with it's variety of jumps on each screen.
Would recommend it highly if you just want some solid needle to play through or a new player looking for something to work on.

A couple jumps in the latter half felt too precise, but pretty great other than that.

Fun easier game in Chatran's classic style. Chatran is a master of open layout needle, creating jumps through minimal blocks floating in the sky. The movements are varied and interesting, and the jumps all feel good. Chatran's spike patterns are here, with some screens using symmetry and others just using the variety of decorative arrangements he's known for. The difficulty balance is fantastic, and the game actually has a smooth difficulty curve, a rarity for games this short. Overall, the game is an easy recommendation.
