A pretty tricky 3x3 room needle game with wrapping paths and interesting manoeuvres, reminiscent of the QoQoQo style. The game comes complete with a map in the game directory which is nice when finding the way forward gets a bit confusing.

AsTatine's visual style is pretty simple which makes for a non-intrusive platforming experience. Nothing gets visually noisy or distracting which is nice, and the music create a pretty chill atmosphere which is always appreciate in this kind of needle game.

A couple of segments stung a bit in difficulty. There are quite a few saves that feel weirdly short, usually accompanied with a very long drop, only to be followed by a hefty gauntlet with a ton of pretty tricky jumps which made for quite a bumpy playthrough. Three seperate saves in particular probably cost me the majority of my time, so perhaps some overall nerfs would've made it a bit smoother.

All around though a pretty solid needle game. Worth playing if you're into the whole looping paths kinda needle style and don't mind a bit of difficulty alongside it.

decently well-made and a fitting sequel to PromethiuM. unfortunately, it capitalizes on PromethiuM's issues a bit too much - there's difficult offscreen jumps and various choke jumps which are more egregious than in PromethiuM due to the notably higher difficulty. save balance is slightly all over the place - some saves took 10-20 minutes while others I first-tried without thinking much of them. I like the visual style, music, sprites and overall idea of the game. to me, it's quite memorable and worth playing even if it isn't really your thing

PromethiuM-likes should be more of a thing, as I think various other makers could pull off the idea of a 3x3 room needle game with interesting pathing quite well

rating based on a studio port. really enjoyable maze. there's a few bruh jumps and saves, and some places you'd want to look at the route, but it didn't kill the fun at all.
