Four different stages, each with its set of gimmicks, plus a final stage which combines gimmicks from the previous stages. I hope you like fruit cycles :)

v1.1 update: minor fixes and nerfs (see readme for details)

This is a really enjoyable fangame with a focus on platforming that has various cycles and gimmicks going on. It's a true jammer that I had a lot of fun with due to all the interesting segments it has throughout.

The game starts with a hub of four stages and each of these has really cool mechanics going on. Some of these involve various gimmicks such as a potion that can turn normal water into jump-refreshing water, or lasers that can alternate on and off or with buttons. Some of my favorite areas involve a stage with purple cherry cycles, an area that has moving blocks to ride across or vertically with, as well as a really cool moving water stage. After the hub comes a final stage where all the gimmicks get combined which leads to some pretty fun interactions. I liked a good bit of everything in the game so I think my only gripe is that the alternating color spikes/blocks don't have any sound effects so they were a bit awkward.

Overall, definitely a very good fangame with some fun platforming. Well worth trying if you want something interesting to play that's also not absurdly hard.

This was a neat needle cycle game. It does feel like a IWM package with the visuals and whatnot. A few sections weren't so great, but it never hurts the experience.

Overall, this was a good experience.

Decent needle game with a huge emphasis on cycle. It has a lot of cool ideas but execution is sometimes very lacking, ranging from pretty good to agonizing and passing by whatever. Best part of the game was after the hub.

Very fun game with a lot of neat gimmicks that test your mind and skill. Even the hub area has some pretty nice standard needle. Presentation (music and visuals) are good too, and anything that has DKC music gets bonus points in my book. Enjoyed this playthrough a lot, and would heartily recommend this game to anyone.
