Nukeru Spike is a great Uhuhu/Dandy/etc-style needle game with some design choices that distinguish it nicely amongst the rest, with a moderately heavy emphasis on triggers or moving obstacles, without ever straying too far away from the slightly irregular but vanilla needle style this kind of game is known for. It doesn't necessarily break the mould or stray too far from the roots of the needle sub-genre, but what it aims for it accomplishes very nicely, making for a short, fun and relatively complaint-free needle experience.
Would be cool to see this follow the trilogy trend of other music-medley art-spike needle series. Going off of history, that means Nukeru Spike 2 would be even better than the first! One day, maybe...

Out of any game to try and reimagine Uhuhu Spike in modern ways, Nukeru manages to be my absolute favorite. If you consider Wolfiexe's Dandy games to be a good improvement on the style, then like me you might consider this to be the start of a third generation. Like previous works, Nukeru has the interesting spike placement that always makes you feel relaxed and comfortable, whilst it manages to keep itself smooth by having no out-of-place saves, an issue some of those earlier titles have.
What Nukeru does differently however is what I think brings this sub-genre to its pinnacle: the addition of moving spikes. This subtle change to the formula makes it feel like this is truly a modern release because it immediately makes the others feel highly outdated now. The way triggers operate as well feels brand new in comparison to some of the usage in the Dandies, even including some interesting timed segments. There's also a fall in the game that is really cool to perform even though it is simple. These little details have made such an enormous change to the style, that I think this is what the future of Uhuhu-Likes should be. If it is, then I really am looking forward to more.
This is probably one of my favorite needle games, I would absolutely recommend it.
