Game heavily inspired by dopamine's games. I made this in a short amount of time, and kinda got tired of working on it, so that's why the ending is a bit strange. I like this game on reflection, which is not common for me, but time will tell if I truly like it or not.

A couple of random tid-bits (basically developer commentary, feel free to skip if this kind of stuff doesn't intrigue you at all):
There is a scrapped hard mode of this game that is probably accessible if you manage to save edit, though a few screens will be unchanged since it wasn't finished.

This game does have lore which I may talk about eventually. But I'm interested to see what people think of it first (though I'll probably never hear anything about that.)

Finding music for this game was really difficult. I really wanted to nail the dopamine aesthetic, especially in regards to the music. But I honestly don't know much stuff that sounds like something they would use. So I kind of relied on Spotify's song radio feature for the first song. The rest are just songs I like that have a somewhat dark atmosphere.

Really fun needle game, had 2 saves that took me a little bit (the one save rooms).

Would recommend for sure!

Needle game with a sort of Catharsis-esque vibe to it. Pretty fun platforming and a consistent aesthetic throughout, but I wasn't a fan of the last two screens. Felt like they were just kind of tacked on and the game ended on a whimper instead of a bang.

Fantastic short needle game. A lot of the jumps feel very satisfying to do and yet not too hard. I only got stuck on one room, so overall the difficulty is pretty consistent. The general aesthetic is very good too, always appreciate stuff like this. Highly recommend to any fangame player who can take on the difficulty.

Very clearly a dopamine like, and it's handled quite well. Like most games like this, I think the atmosphere steals the show a bit, but the gameplay itself is always quite good, would definitely recommend this especially since it's short.

The visuals and atmosphere in this game are very weird but really well made; also love this type of needle where everything looks impossible but stuff just works and flows perfectly.
