Thank you for playing my game! For a little insight on this game, it was mostly a project with no real plan, I mostly just came up with ideas on the run, which then lead to the dream theme. I initially had planned to think of more gimmicks to use, but struggling to come up with any good ones it turned out to mostly be needle. I'm not really terribly proud of it, even though the environments and overall mood turned out pretty good in contrast. I'm definitely going to plan out my next game better to ensure it's more in line gameplay wise to what I want.

Pretty neat and abstract game. You go around collecting "dream orbs" that allow you to visit the final area and get the ending once you have them all. The atmosphere and visuals this game provides are excellent and convey the dream feel very well, something I compare with games to the likes of Yume Nikki. Biggest complaint is that there is a lot of empty space and the game could be a tad bit harder, but these aren't major and the difficulty complaint isn't necessarily a negative thing. Recommend if you're looking for a beginner game or a chill-out/explorative kind of game.

All in all a well done, atmospheric needle. A uniform style is well maintained throughout the game. The balance is good too. But, it killed me that it is necessarily to collect all the "secrets" for the passage, and they talk about this only before the final part.

When I first played it as someone who cleared one gold FSR needle game, I absolutely hated it and didn't garner enough motivation to play it after getting partway thru green area, mostly because I really wanted to play linear, short games without secrets. Now as someone who has cleared more than 20 gold games and more than half of silver including qowulu, I garnered up enough motivation to play it and enjoyed it. I guess that for me, I needed to be better at needle and more used to games with secrets to really enjoy this game

Lots of good and interesting gimmicks, with chase sequences at just the right difficulty for the rest of the game. Not a fan of the grey zone, but the whole idea of chasing up coins through different areas worked really well otherwise.
