My first complete fangame, made in ~2 months.
I like tier lists, so if you want to make a chart for the rooms in the game here you go (spoilers for all the rooms obviously): https://tiermaker.com/create/i-wanna-be-the-caretaker-621666

Caretaker is a wonderful treat to play through that has both excellent gameplay as well as an interesting artistic value. I'm not personally familiar with the original music, but I feel like even without said knowledge I understand the premise of this game well, which shows how well Gizmo executed the concept
Each stage in the game comes with a different concept that is focused on a gimmick primarily, and they're all pretty fun to play through. There are a lot of cool segments here, such as the final screen of the stage that revolves around bomb explosions. A really cool gimmick in the game focuses on anti-gravity, which sort of works like the fields in Celeste in that your momentum will continue in the direction you enter it at. The final stage was pretty impressive for being a well-rounded finale to the game, and the ending segment after that was pretty dramatic.
Definitely a really fun needle game, would recommend it.

Really great atmospheric pure platforming/needleventure game.
I wasn't sure what to expect going in, as all I knew was in the top review, inspired by an album and it very much was not what I thought it could be. Perhaps somewhat judgmental of me, but typically when fangames give the impression that their core is their soundtrack, it usually lowers my expectations of it, expecting the soundtrack to compensate for the game - this one actually went the opposite way. I wasn't aware of the musical piece (and having gone through this, not especially fond of the style), but found that the game was so well executed that it made me appreciate the music more. Overall, the execution of the atmosphere of this game was excellent. The small production touches with the title screen, the sound effects, the visual distortions tied in with the aesthetics was just a very consistent and impressive product.
Gameplay wise, the platforming was solid - fun and flows well, built very well for its difficulty target and I appreciate the level of accessibility it produced, especially mixed with the variety of mechanics. There were a few bumps along the way, but all in all, excellent as well.
Overall, if you don't mind a dark atmosphere, I'd strongly recommend this game. Its very well executed, has a great gameplay flow and enough substance to be worth the time.

One of the best game in terms of atmosphere and story it tells to you without words, only gameplay. This is insane that this is debute game, i'm really looking into next games that Gizmo will produce. Despite there's no bosses in game, i considered it as adventure and one of the best in addition. Absolutely fantastic!
(Not 10/10 because some saves was quite annoying)
