Really fun and long needle game with great visuals. However some saves were really out of place and way harder than everything else.

This game was really hard for me when I first cleared it back in the day. Because I struggled with it, I don't think I could really appreciate what was in front of me.
Now I'm better—good enough to not get stuck, good enough to pay attention to the forest around me instead of the trees in front of me. Almost every jump has been hand-crafted to near perfection. Rare is the game where I'm willingly performing a platform jump instead of landing on it because it not only feels better that way, but is actually easier. The game rewards the player for taking the ambitious route and using their experience to find the intended method, which inevitably makes things easier than they would otherwise be.
There are a few minor details that hold it back. Some jumps are a touch too precise for where they occur in the save; the kid sometimes blends in a bit too much with the visuals. Minor details, yes, but important nonetheless, and they do prevent me from rating this a 9 or higher (my favourites threshold). But if you're good enough to play this and even remotely like needle, you should.

This game was a huge mixed bag for me. You have cool saves which are ruined by certain jumps or just suck from the start. Some of the jumps as well were really annoying to pull off, like that platform jump in the first save of second to last screen of the second area which almost made me quit. I also had this pet peeve where the first save in almost every area was the least fun. If it wasn't for those good ass visuals I would probably have rated this lower. Really like your work Skulldude, but this one just didn't click for me that much.
